Precision Ignition Control for Serious Chevy V8 Builds
The MSD Chevy V8 Pro-Billet Distributor delivers unmatched ignition precision, reliability, and adjustability for high-performance engines. Machined from a solid billet of 6061-T6 aluminum using CNC technology, this distributor ensures tight tolerances and long-lasting strength, ideal for demanding street/strip or race applications.

A sealed ball bearing and extra-long sintered bushing support the .500” polished steel shaft at the core of the distributor. MSD applies a QPQ coating to the shaft to reduce friction and enhance corrosion resistance. This design maintains high-RPM stability and smooth, reliable operation under extreme conditions.

Advanced Magnetic Triggering

A precision-machined reluctor and high-output magnetic pickup ensure ultra-accurate ignition triggering throughout the RPM range. With no moving contact points, the magnetic pickup offers maintenance-free operation, improved consistency, and longer service life.

Custom-Tunable Advance Curve

Located just above the pickup, MSD’s adjustable mechanical advance assembly allows for total control of your timing curve. The distributor includes an assortment of springs and stop bushings so you can dial in the perfect setup for your engine and driving needs. The mechanical advance can also be locked out for crank trigger systems.
