It always impresses us when a company is able to effectively solve a technical barrier, and in the process ends up creating something that not only works, but solves other problems as well. MSD Ignition was developed to solve a weak spark condition that presented itself when Autotronic Controls Corporation (MSD's parent company) invented the lean-burning Electrasonic Fuel Induction system, which was designed to improve fuel economy. With the MSD unit's capacitive discharge design firing off multiple sparks during combustion (MSD stands for "Multiple Spark Discharge," by the way), not only was the lean air/fuel mixture able to ignite, but it also improved starting and idle, and it also created more power with fewer emissions. Today, MSD Ignition is considered the undisputed leader in the field of performance ignition parts, and offers everything from individual ignition components to complete systems.
Q: What is a distributor? Why buy one?
A: Distributors are a component of your ignition that allows the proper distribution of spark to your engine as the motor spins around. In order to keep your engine running smoothly the distributor has to be in great shape. Any wear in the shaft or electrical contacts can cause a host of running issues from misfires to complete failure. While replacement distributors are a great way to bring your vehicle back to stock running condition, high-performance aftermarket distributors are also available which can greatly improve both reliability and performance. From dual point distributors to electronic conversion units, aftermarket distributors will provide a more powerful and reliable spark to keep your engine running reliably with more grunt than before. In addition many of these distributors have tunable advance curves so that you can customize your distributor to your engine specifications. A new high performance distributor is one of the best modifications you can perform on your engine.
