  • MSDs Ready-to-Run Ford Distributors are the perfect upgrade for bulky DuraSpark systems or ancient breaker point models. These distributors come complete and ready-to-run. All you need to do is drop it in the engine, connect three wires and fire the engine. Each distributor features an ignition module that produces a powerful inductive spark to improve combustion of the fuel mixture resulting in quick starts, smooth idle and increased performance. The billet aluminum housings of these distributors are 5/8 smaller in diameter to accommodate induction setups and tight engine compartments. A maintenance-free magnetic pickup is responsible for triggering the high voltage sparks while a sealed ball bearing guides an oversized shaft. Beneath the bolt down cap and MSD race rotor youll find MSDs accurate mechanical advance assembly. Different advance springs and stop bushings are supplied so you can easily tune a curve to match your needs. Plus, there is a vacuum advance canister to increase economy on long drives. For protection, there is also an easy-to-set rev limiter!

      I received this product, from the manufacturer, damaged. I immediately sent an email to AutoPartsWAY who had a new shipped to me before I even mailed the old one back to the company. The new one worked great.

      This distributor was installed in a 1949 Ford V8 original flathead along with a new coil, wires, plugs, Holley 4 barrel carb and electric fuel pump. The engine starts SO easy and runs strong. The distributor installed very easy, instructions great. Engine timing was not a problem.I did initially have a poor connection from ignition switch to coil, which caused it not to start. You need to make sure you have 12 volts at coil not only initially, but also when engine is cranking - the distributor needs a lot more current flow than the original points/distributor/coil setup.

      Direct bolt on improvement in replacing the original Ford distributor. According to MSD this is for 94-95 Mustang 5.0L only but it is also an unstated direct replacement for 91-93 Thunderbird/Cougar.

      Very nice quality item. Installed as per complete instructions. Kit was missing three mounting bolts. Car runs well however it is early in the process. I am happy! Shipping was free from AutoPartsWAY and quick.
