  • The Chevrolet HEI Distributor is a favorite for muscle cars, street rods and even circle track racers. The integrated coil keeps underhood wiring clean, and for race cars, the idea of running one wire to the distributor keeps things simple. 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.

      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.
