MSD’s Ready-to-Run Marine Distributors are the perfect upgrade for boats that are relying on worn-out breaker points or weak ignition systems. These new distributors feature a powerful ignition module built into the billet aluminum housing. This module produces a stout inductive spark that will improve combustion of the fuel mixture for better driveability. Beneath the durable bolt-down, injection-molded cap, a maintenance-free magnetic pick-up produces accurate trigger signals while an oversized shaft is guided by a sealed ball bearing. An easy-to-adjust mechanical advance allows you to custom tailor a timing curve to match your application. The Ready-to-Run Distributors are a breeze to install. Simply drop it in the engine and connect three wires and you’re ready-to-run across the lake! Supplied with a cap, rotor, gear and Weathertight wiring harness.
This is a new Ford 351-460 Ready-to-Run Marine Billet Aluminum Distributor, Part number 83506
MSD’s Ready-to-Run Marine Distributors are the perfect upgrade for boats that are relying on worn-out breaker points or weak ignition systems. These new distributors feature a powerful ignition module built into the billet aluminum housing. Simply install the distributor in the engine, connect three wires, the coil and fire it up! A maintenance-free magnetic pick-up accurately triggers the module. The increased output of the amplifier easily outperforms stock ignitions and will smooth out the engine’s idle, improve starting and provide a much higher rpm range. The Ready-to-Run features MSD’s adjustable mechanical advance, which allows you to custom tailor an ignition curve to match your engine’s needs. There is also a vacuum advance canister to help improve economy. For positive street performance, the Ready-to-Run is the best choice.
MSD’s Ready-to-Run Distributor incorporates a magnetic pick-up that never wears out! Plus, the distributor has a built in ignition module so there is no need to mount an external MSD Ignition Control. MSD offers these Billet Distributors to deliver accurate trigger signals and are maintenance-free! Under the brass terminal cap of each distributor is MSD’s race proven magnetic pick-up. This pick-up never requires adjustment and simply plugs right into an MSD Ignition Control. Just above it and under our strong race rotor is an adjustable mechanical advance assembly. The chro-moly weights of this assembly slide on nylon bushings producing smooth movement of the timing. You can easily adjust the curve to match your engine’s requirements with the supplied springs and stop bushings. Each precision CNC-machined billet aluminum housing features a sealed ball-bearing and long sintered bushing for stability at any rpm and increased endurance. An oversized steel shaft receives a QPQ coating to reduce friction and prevent corrosion. Both distributors are supplied with a high quality cap, rotor and gear. There is even a vacuum advance canister for street cruising economy!
