The Allstar Performance ALL81219 is a high performance distributor for Chevrolet V8 engines, built for many types of motorsports. It is designed to work with an aftermarket ignition box, such as an MSD, Crane or Mallory, and an external coil such as the Allstar ALL81230. The CNC-machined 6061-T6 aluminum housing has a sealed upper support bearing and an extra-long lower bronze bushing that helps maintain accurate timing at higher RPM. This version has an adjustable collar, locked mechanical advance and a bronze gear. It includes a molded cap and rotor with a plug wire retainer and installation instructions. Because the advance is locked, it does not include a mechanical curve kit, advance springs or stop bushings.
