Key Features

Low-profile, tall block, racing distributor must be used with an MSD 6, 7 or 8-series ignition and a crank trigger.

The housing features two optional O-rings at the bottom that improve oil control by preventing oil pressure loss. Also, a small oil bleed hole located in the base sprays oil on the distributor and camshaft gears to prevent excessive wear. Since this is a racing distributor, there is an adjustable slip collar to make up for engines that have had the distance between the mounting surface and the gear modified. | Crowning this distributor is MSD's own Crab Cap! This cap incorporates spark plug style terminals for a better connection and grip to the plug wires. | The super tall crab cap is taller to fit special racing blocks such as the Allen Root or Rocket blocks. | The MSD Crab Cap Distributors are built specifically for racing engines with almost no room for a distributor due to tunnel rams or blowers. The distributor is equipped with a special low-profile crab style distributor cap to allow it to fit in extremely tight areas.

Low-profile, tall block, racing distributor must be used with an MSD 6, 7 or 8-series ignition and a crank trigger.
