    MSD 8534 Details

    Remove the MSD cap and Race Rotor and youll find easy access to the adjustable mechanical advance assembly. This advance is designed for accuracy and strength with TIG-welded weight pins, nylon pads for smooth movement of the weights and a QPQ coating for friction reduction. Different advance springs and stop bushings are supplied so you can custom tailor a timing curve to fit your Chryslers needs. Supporting the advance assembly is a hardened, polished steel shaft. Two ball bearing guides are used to support the shaft producing incredible stability. Precision paddles of a zinc-plated reluctor pass a maintenance-free magnetic pick-up creating a trigger signal that tells the MSD to fire.

    • CNC machined billet aluminum housing and Dupont Rynite base
    • Maintenance-free magnetic pickup and precision reluctor create stable trigger signals throughout the rpm range
    • Polished steel shaft is QPQ coated and guided by two sealed ball bearings
    • 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)
    • Must be used with an MSD Ignition Control
    • No CARB Exemption Order Number
    • Must be used with an MSD 6, 7, 8 or 10 Ignition Control.
    • Does not accept a vacuum advance.

    Flawless distributor for EFI control

    Locked it out for use with my Atomic EFI conversion...WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I never knew how important proper advance/timing was and how poorly the stock ignition system was set up. I read a lot about different set ups and whatnot. Mine is a 360 .030 over with 10.5:1 and 238* @ .050. I set initial to 24*...Ya, 24* initial, and total to 34*. No ping and idles like a dream. Further enhanced by the adjustable rotor from MSD.
