MSD 8528 Details

Do yourself and your Poncho a favor and replace your points distributor with a Ready-to-Run model. Youll never have to adjust or replace the points again and your car will run better thanks to the hot MSD sparks. Inside the CNC-machined billet housing there is an ignition module that produces a much hotter spark which will improve the performance of your engine. Also, since timing advance is important to Pontiac engines, the mechanical advance can easily be adjusted with the supplied advance springs and stop bushings. Plus, theres a vacuum advance canister to help economy at moderate cruise speeds.

Simple and clean installation with only three wires to connect
Powerful built-in module produces a 7.5 amp single spark through high rpm
Easy-to-adjust mechanical advance with supplied springs and stop bushings
Vacuum advance canister for improved economy (can be locked out)
CNC machined billet aluminum housing and billet aluminum base
Easy-to-adjust mechanical advance with supplied springs and stop bushings
Maintenance-free magnetic pickup and precision reluctor create stable trigger signals throughout the rpm range
Polished steel shaft is QPQ coated and guided by a sealed ball bearing
Advance plate and weights are fine blanked from chrome moly steel and QPQ coated for friction reduction
Mechanical advance assembly can be locked out for crank trigger systems
Advance weight pins are staked and tig welded to the plate
Nylon pads ensure smooth operation of the advance weights
Supplied with an HEI style distributor cap and rotor (accepts Cap-A-Dapts)
Does not require an MSD Ignition Control
CARB E.O. Approved
