Description for MSD part# 8489
Specifications: * Must be used with an MSD 6 7 8 or 10 series or comparable aftermarket ignition and crank trigger. * Supplied with cap rotor and bronze gear. * Dimensions (5 3/8 in. width 2 7/8 in.-3 3/4 in. height) are taken from the top of the installed distributor to the block and at the widest part of the distributor base. * Overheight is 11 1/4 in.The MSD crab cap distributor is built specifically for racing engines with tunnel rams or blowers. The distributor is equipped with a special low profile crab style cap allowing it to fit in extremely tight areas. There is an adjustable slip collar for engines with a modified mounting surface to gear distance. From the alkyd cap with brass terminals to the bronze gear the crab cap billet distributor is race ready. MSD Billet distributors are the finest performance and racing distributors available. The distributor housing is CNC machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum to within +/- 1/1000 in. producing a housing thats stable lightweight and less prone to flex. MSD also uses an upper-sealed ball bearing to guide the distributor shaft preventing shaft wobble at high rpms. The shaft is polished and QPQ coated to minimize friction and allow the distributors to operate through 10000 rpm. This distributor uses a Dupont Rynite glass reinforced distributor cap base for strength and high dielectric properties. It has a severe duty mechanical advance and comes with an advance spring and stop bushing assortment. It also has a high output magnetic trigger for stable timing. This distributor also features two O-rings at the bottom of the housing for improved oil control and a small oiling hole at the distributor base for better distributor and cam gear oiling.Not legal for sale or use on pollution-controlled vehicles.
