Description
Engineered for Performance. MSD Mustang distributors are a much better option than stock. They are designed to improve performance and include features like an adjustable mechanical advance assembly that allows you to finely tune the advanced curve to match your specific application. MSD distributors are also precision-made from Chromoly Steel and TIG-welded for strength, plus they receive a QPQ coating for durability. With different springs and stop bushings supplied, it's easy to configure an MSD distributor to match your Mustang's unique needs.
Unbeatable Durability. The distributor is made from Chromoly Steel and TIG-welded for strength. It also receives a QPQ coating for durability. This makes it a precise piece of equipment that will stand up to the demands of high-performance use. The adjustable mechanical advance assembly allows you to finely tune the advance curve to match your specific application, ensuring optimum performance.
Easily Installed. The installation process is simple and straightforward. An MSD distributor installs just like the stock unit, but it is packed with awesome features that help improve performance. First, remove the old distributor and disconnect the wiring. Next, install the MSD Mustang distributor using the supplied hardware. Finally, reattach the spark plug wires in the correct order and you're good to go!
Easy-To-Adjust Mechanical Advance. Your MSD distributor includes an easy-to-adjust mechanical advance assembly that allows you to finely tune the advance curve to match your specific application. This means you can configure the distributor to match your Mustang's unique needs and get the most out of its performance.
Application. This MSD distributor is designed specifically for Ford Mustang enthusiasts that are serious about performance. It will work on the 1979 5.0L and 1982-1985 5.0L Mustangs.
Warranty. American Muscle offers a one-year warranty on all Mustang distributors. If you have any problems with your distributor during that time, American Muscle will work to resolve the issue. This warranty is just another way we demonstrate our commitment to providing quality products and excellent customer service.
