Adjustable Billet Timing Pointer — Small Block Ford, 11 O'Clock, Stock and SVO Blocks

Find the mark. Lock it down. A fixed factory tab makes you work around it. This one moves - four degrees of adjustment to put the pointer where the engine actually is; not where the casting says it should be. Machined from 6061-T6 billet and black anodized; it holds position instead of flexing or wandering after a few heat cycles. That is what turns a timing light into a precision tool. Stainless hardware included. Rust has no business at the front of a finished engine.

  • Four degrees of adjustment - set the pointer to the engine instead of working around a fixed tab.
  • 6061-T6 billet - holds its position; no flex or wander after heat cycles.
  • Black anodized - corrosion protection that also looks right against a finished front cover.
  • Stainless hardware included - nothing rusts at one of the most visible points on the engine.
  • Machine-lightened - the weight taken out where it does no work.

Install Level: Easy - bolt-on; basic hand tools

Mounts at 11 o'clock TDC.
Fully machine-lightened.

An adjustable timing pointer for small block Ford, machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum and black anodized, with a 4-degree range of movement to find that precise timing location. Mounts at 11 o'clock, fits stock and SVO blocks. Stainless bolts included.

A fixed factory tab makes you work around it. An adjustable pointer lets you set it where the engine actually is. This one gives you a 4-degree range of movement for finding that precise timing location, which is what turns a timing light into a precision tool.

It is machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum, so it holds its position instead of flexing or wandering after a few heat cycles. Each pointer is fully machine-lightened, and the main body and adjustment assembly are black anodized for long-lasting corrosion protection — which also means it looks right against a finished front cover.

Stainless steel hardware is included with every pointer, so nothing rusts at one of the most visible points on the engine. MSD builds these to direct fit each application, with various part numbers available to fit multiple balancer sizes. This is the small block Ford listing at 11 o'clock TDC, for stock or SVO blocks.
