This is the perfect upgrade for outdated points or HEI distributors. This distributor is built around a billet aluminum housing that is CNC-machined to exact tolerances. An oversized steel shaft is guided by a sealed ball bearing and an extra-long sintered bushing for high-rpm stability and endurance. Also available in a black anodized billet aluminum base, black cap and black vacuum advance pod for a clean look.
