It's supplied with MSD's Digital HEI Module and HEI Coil for strong spark energy with improved dwell and timing control. Tig-welded atop the shaft is MSD's adjustable centrifugal advance assembly, with a supplied curve kit of springs and stop bushings, plus a vacuum advance for economy. The CNC-machined billet housing comes complete with a cap, rotor, coil cover, and heavy-duty gear.
