    MSD 8566 Details

    Sharing the CNC machining techniques with the rest of the MSD Distributor line, the Olds housing is machined from high quality 6061-T6 aluminum. Adding to this strength are two sealed ball bearings that guide the 0.500 shaft accurately through 10,000 rpm. TIG-welded on top of the polished steel shaft is MSDs adjustable mechanical advance assembly. To accurately trigger the ignition, a high-output magnetic pick-up is bolted to the base. This trigger pick-up produces a precise trigger signal. An MSD red cap with brass terminals and Race Rotor are supplied.
    • 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 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)
