  • Supplied with small, low crab style distributor cap, rotor and bronze gear
  • Must be used with an MSD Crank Trigger and MSD Ignition Control
  • Special oil tract improves lubrication to the distributor and cam gear

Description

The housing features two optional O-rings at the bottom that improve oil control by preventing oil pressure loss. Also, a small oil bleed hole located in the base sprays oil on the distributor and camshaft gears to prevent excessive wear. Since this is a racing distributor, there is an adjustable slip collar to make up for engines that have had the distance between the mounting surface and the gear modified.
