LS Series Front Drive Distributor

Not Available

MSD's Pro-Billet Front Drive distributor is the solution for the race engines that don't have room for a standard distributor due to firewall clearance or intake combinations. The MSD Front Drive distributor is belt-driven from a pulley installed on the camshaft. For increased strength and durability a 9mm belt is used which is wider than any other drive assembly. The distributor head is CNC-machined from a billet of aluminum and is secured to a strong precision bracket. This system is an extremely accurate way to distribute the spark energy from your MSD Ignition! We revised the front drive with our standard Ford-style cap and rotor. This creates a downsized package for an easier fit in tight engine compartments. The Front Drive distributor is supplied with mounting bolts, cam pulley and drive belt. Note: Must be used with a Jesel or Comp Cams Camshaft Belt Drive Kit and an MSD Flying Magnet Crank Trigger.

Features:

  • Band clamp mount allows easy rotor phasing adjustment
  • The only front drive distributor with adjustable belt tension
  • The MSD Cap and Rotor are injection molded from strong DuPont Rynite
  • Billet aluminum bracket and lower housing for strength
  • Supplied with cam gear, hardware and extra wide 9mm belt
