MSD VW Billet Distributor
VW Type 1 Billet Distributor
Using technology gained from building distributors for SCORE, CORR, NHRA and NASCAR racers, MSD offers this Billet Distributor for the popular VW Type 1 engine.
A maintenance-free magnetic pickup is responsible for triggering the MSD Ignition. This pickup is accurate to within 1° at any rpm so you won't have to worry about points float or stutters at top end speeds. The pickup is triggered by a precision reluctor that is attached to a hardened steel shaft. CA Prop 65 Warning
For increased stability, a sealed ball bearing is used to guide the shaft. Since every engine application is different, the MSD Billet Distributor features an easy-to-adjust mechanical advance assembly. By simply changing the advance springs and stop bushing you can tune in 24 different advance curves.
NOTE: Must be used with an MSD 6 or 7 Series Ignition. Supplied with cap and rotor. Does not accept a vacuum advance.
NOTE: Different style spark plug terminals and boots are required or use MSD’s Custom 8.5mm Super Conductor Wires PN 31939.
