Not a spring kit.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA Ready-to-Run Pro-Billet distributor for Ford 289 and 302 with MSD's E-Curve electronic advance — programmed with two rotary switches under the cap, per MSD's instruction sheet. Steel gear installed, no ignition box required.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe E-Curve is the reason to buy this one. Per MSD's instruction sheet for the 85031, you program an electronic timing advance curve by adjusting two rotary switches under the distributor cap. No spring kit, no bench time, no pulling it apart to change your mind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe numbers come from that same sheet. Total timing change achievable is 34 degrees — 25 from the electronic advance, with an additional 9 available with vacuum. The rev limiter is adjustable from 5,000 to 10,000 rpm by a rotary dial under the cap and rotor.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnderneath, it is Pro-Billet Ready-to-Run hardware with the Ford gear problem already solved. The steel gear is Melonized QPQ coated and installed, sparing you the pressed fit, the cross-drilling, and the gear-height setting. No ignition box required, so spark control stays inside the CNC machined billet housing.\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 Pro-Billet Ready-to-Run Distributor — E-Curve Electronic Advance, CNC Billet Housing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ex1 Distributor Cap — listed red in the spec table\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ex1 Rotor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ex1 Steel Gear, Melonized QPQ Coated, Installed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNot included: ignition coil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFits: Ford 289 \/ 302 small block V8.
