Default Need a BBC distributor

Looking for a distributor for a BBC, specifically my 87 420 HP. Needs to have the screw in studs on the distributor. Don't know why, but mine has eaten two sensors out of the distributor, so I think it is time to just change the whole darn thing. Thanks in advance.

No, the shaft feels nice and tight. Doesn't really make sense but I don't like riding on one motor.

I went with these on this set of engines as an experiment just for the cost and to see how well they worked.

Took a few tries to get the curve and the amount of advance right do to the design, but now that they are set up, they have been working great through 27 hours on each engine.

They use a cheap 3 prong plug that we changed to standard automotive bullet connectors since the ones that came on it will wiggle loose.

They will wire right in though. and it takes a lot of the wiring clutter off of the engine.
