Using
technology gained from
building distributors for
off-road and NASCAR racers,
MSD offers this Billet
Distributor for the popular
Type 1 engine. A
maintenance-free magnetic
pick-up is responsible for
triggering the MSD Ignition.
This pick-up is accurate to
within 1° at any rpm so
you won’t have to worry about
points float at top end
speeds. The pick-up is
triggered by a precision
reluctor that is attached to
a hardened steel shaft. For
increased stability, a sealed
ball bearing is used to guide
the shaft. Since every engine
application is different, the
MSD Billet Distributor
features an easy-to-adjust
mechanical advance assembly.
By simply changing the
advance springs and stop
bushing you can tune in 24
different advance curves.
