    Notes
    Vacuum advance canister is included in the box, but it is not installed from the factory.

This is the easiest to install, easiest to adjust CNC machined distributor you will find. Just drop in as you normally would, hook up the three wires, set the initial timing, run a vacuum line to the advance and you are ready to dial it in. Literally. The knob on the side allows you to change timing up or down 1/2 a degree at a time. Starts producing a super hot spark at 50 rpm for easy starting and keeps putting out through 10,000 rpm. It also has a small diameter cap to clear tight fit applications.

Cap has HEI-style terminals. Fits Small Block and Big Block Chevy V8.

  • Easy 3-wire install with no external spark box necessary
  • Precision CNC machining and hand assembled construction
  • Patent pending positive lock manual advance/retard knob
    • Distributor can be accurately advanced or retarded in 1/2-degree increments on the fly
    • Each click of the knob provides a 1/2-degree change to total ignition timing
    • Get accurate settings easily
  • Accurate super hot spark all the way through 10,000 RPM
  • Hardened steel .50” diameter steel shaft with sealed roller bearing upper support and bronze bushed lower support for stability at max RPM
  • Powerful magnetic pickup and CNC machined reluctor pickup
  • Fully adjustable advance mechanism with easy to use spring and bushing design for a nearly infinite advance curve
  • Powerfire module built in for drop-in reliability from 50 to 10,000 RPM.
  • Hot cranking spark as low as 50 RPM
  • Black anodized base with laser etched timing marks for visibility
  • High quality injection molded caps with brass terminals for long life and conductivity
  • Plug wire retainer plate secures plug wires to cap

 

  1. Three wire hookup - orange to negative side of coil, red to positive side of coil, and black to ground. Includes female plug pigtail.
  2. Remote coil is required. Coil # 547-8202 is suggested.
  3. Cap diameter is 4.138". Cap diameter at the hold down boss is 4.624". Cap height is 4.354" from attachment surface to top of male plug wire post.

By Milner from Dimondale, Michigan on 1/23/2010
Pros:
High Quality Product
Cons:
Only came with male cap
Best Uses:
Run my car Da
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Does what it advertized to do. But add said it came with both a male and female cap. it only had the male cap. Hade to buy new wires and make them to fit because of male cap. All said it's still a great distributor! i would recomend it.

Nice part- instructions could be better

By David from Ontario Canada on 12/23/2010
Pros:
Adjustable, Looks good, Well Made
Cons:
Instructions sb better
Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Very nice product- the adjustment knob is an amazing idea. No wonder it won at SEMA in '09! The only thing that could be better are the 'instructions' - mine came with the vacuum advance lockout installed (the vacuum advance WAS included though), and there were no instructions included to install it. The instructions to REMOVE the vacuum advance and install the lockout would work in reverse, except that you can't re-install the snapring without first pulling the roll pin and sliding the shaft up a few inches so the snapring clears. Aside from that, it looks like a great product and think it will work out nicely.

Service & Delivery comments:

As usual, Speedway rocked the delivery- fast shipping, even to Canada, great customer service.
