MSD 8486 Super Tall Block Crab Cap Distributor, for Chevy V8

Genuine MSD part.

The housing features two optional O-rings at the bottom that improve oil control by preventing oil pressure loss. Also, a small oil bleed hole located in the base sprays oil on the distributor and camshaft gears to prevent excessive wear. Since this is a racing distributor, there is an adjustable slip collar to make up for engines that have had the distance between the mounting surface and the gear modified.

MSD crank trigger ignition distributor, part number 8486, supplied new.
