The MSD Chevy V8 Marine Ready-to-Run distributor in black anodized finish builds on MSD's proven billet marine distributor with a 6061-T6 aluminum housing that's hard anodized for a sleek black look and added corrosion resistance. A powerful ignition module built into the housing produces a stout inductive spark for better combustion, while a maintenance-free magnetic pickup beneath the durable, bolt-down, injection-molded cap delivers accurate trigger signals. The mechanical advance is easy to adjust, and the whole unit installs with just three wires plus the supplied cap, rotor, gear, and weathertight wiring harness.
