That is the point.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA race-application distributor for Ford 289 and 302 engines already running an MSD crank trigger — no advance assembly, no pickup, and a low-profile Rynite cap that clears busy intake setups. Bronze gear supplied. Listed red in the spec table.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis distributor has one job: carry spark from your ignition to the plugs while the crank trigger handles timing. There is no advance assembly and no pickup inside, and as MSD puts it, the only thing under the cap is a rotor. That is exactly why the cap assembly sits so low.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is built for racing service. A ball bearing is pressed into the housing to guide the polished steel shaft, and the shaft carries a QPQ coating for friction reduction. MSD tops it with their Rynite-molded Ford-style cap and wire retainer, so plug wire routing stays organized instead of flopping around at rpm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEvery distributor is supplied with a bronze gear for race cam applications. The housing is standard-height Ford, so cast intake manifolds work as they should. Red is the confirmed difference from 83795, which MSD lists in black.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's In the Box\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe distributor and what ships with it:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ex1 Crank Trigger Distributor — Standard-Height Ford Housing, Pressed Ball Bearing, QPQ-Coated Shaft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ex1 Rynite-Molded Ford-Style Cap and Wire Retainer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ex1 Rotor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ex1 Bronze Gear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot included: ignition coil, MSD crank trigger, MSD ignition control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits: Ford 289 \/ 302.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires: an MSD crank trigger and an MSD ignition control.
