Cap and Rotor Kits
Replacement Distributor Cap and Rotor Set
  • Fits 1977-1986 Ford Duraspark Distributors
  • Screw-On Rotor Attachment
  • Red Cap
  • Sold as a Matched Maintenance Set

    Caps and rotors are wear items, not lifetime parts. Carbon tracking inside the cap and an eroded rotor tip both bleed spark energy, and the symptoms show up as a rough idle or a miss under load long before anything looks obviously burnt. Replacing both together on a Duraspark distributor restores the spark path in one step.

    MSD 8450 Distributor Cap and Rotor Kit Features:

    • Fits 1977-1986 Ford Duraspark distributors.
    • Supplied as a matched cap and rotor set.
    • Screw-on rotor attachment.
    • Red cap.
    • MSD distributor caps and rotors are designed with performance in mind and molded from high-quality, voltage-insulating material with terminals that resist carbon tracking. Whenever the distributor cap is changed, you should install a new rotor. Likewise, if you're replacing the rotor, be sure to install a new cap as well. MSD has new kits featuring Rynite injection molded distributor caps and retainers to complete your distributor tune-up. MSD also has Cap-A-Dapts to fit large Ford-style caps onto MSD distributors.
