However, when it comes to performance, the stock HEI falls short.MSD answers the need for a strong, accurate and high performance HEI with our Pro-Billet HEI. The distributor is supplied with our Digital HEI Module and Coil so there is plenty of spark energy combined with improved dwell and timing control. Tig welded on top of the distributor shaft is MSDs adjustable centrifugal advance assembly. Three sets of springs and four stop bushings let you dial in up to 24 different timing curves to match your driving needs. Plus, theres a vacuum advance for those concerned with economy. All of this is assembled around a precision and great looking CNC machined housing. The distributor is supplied with our new cap, rotor and coil cover and heavy duty gear so it is ready to install in your engine! Note: The PN 8365 is designed to replace GM HEI Distributors that use a 4-pin ignition module.

We know the importance of a centrifugal advance in a distributor so our engineers made sure that the Street Fire receive an advance assembly with coated weights and welded weight pins (Not just pressed in like other models). Another area that you cannot afford to scrimp on is with a distributor gear. The Street Fire is fit with the same gear that is used on our Pro-Billet models. The metallurgy of this gear has been refined for years to perform through the harshest conditions. Inside, the ignition module and coil work together to produce a stout spark to light the fuel mixture for great performance.
