Built for miles. Tuned by you.

A Street Pro-Billet distributor for the Ford 289 or 302 that actually gets driven — vacuum advance canister for economy, a mechanical advance you tune yourself, and a steel gear already installed for hydraulic roller camshafts. Requires an MSD 6, 7, or 8 Series ignition.

MSD builds the Street Pro-Billet line for powerful engines that see plenty of street time, and it shows in what this carries. The vacuum advance canister is there for improved economy on a truck racking up real miles, and it can be locked out when the combination calls for it.

The curve is yours. An accurate mechanical advance adjusts with supplied springs and stop bushings, so you dial in how fast timing comes in and where it stops. The magnetic pickup produces accurate trigger signals through the entire rpm range and is completely maintenance-free.

The steel gear is installed and compatible with hydraulic roller camshafts, so the pressed-fit gear job Ford distributors normally demand is handled. The billet housing runs 5/8 inch smaller in diameter than stock, and the small diameter cap with HEI terminals and race rotor accepts the 8441 Cap-A-Dapt.
