Crank Trigger Distributor for 1968-1997 Ford 351C-460 Engines [Red]
In a high cylinder pressure race engine, timing has to come off the crankshaft rather than the distributor, and the distributor becomes purely a high voltage router. This unit is built for that job on big block Ford combinations, with a large diameter cap to keep spark from jumping between towers and a standard height housing so it still clears a cast intake manifold.
MSD 8377 Crank Trigger Distributor Features:
- Must be used with a crank trigger and an ignition control.
- Large diameter distributor cap prevents spark scatter on high cylinder pressure engines.
- Low profile cap assembly clears busy engine bays.
- Polished QPQ coated steel shaft guided by a sealed ball bearing for high rpm stability.
- Supplied with a bronze gear for race camshaft applications.
Emissions Note:
This part is only legal for sale and use on Uncontrolled (Non-Emissions Controlled) Vehicles or on vehicles used solely for the purposes of closed competition racing.

Distributors Geared for Racing
MSD Ignition Crank Trigger distributors are designed for racing engines that use a crankshaft triggered ignition. A low profile lets these distributors fit in tight quarters and still accurately deliver the sparks. Each crank trigger distributor contains a CNC-machined billet aluminum housing and inside the housing, a sealed ball bearing and long sintered bushing, guide a QPQ-coated shaft for accurate spark delivery throughout high rpm. A low profile distributor cap with brass terminals clamps onto the housing and covers the racing rotor. The rotor contains deep vanes to stir up the air; reducing the chance of spark scatter. Since these distributors are for racing applications, bronze gears are supplied. Must be used with an MSD Crank Trigger and MSD 6, 7 or 8-Series Ignition Control
