Default MSD Distributors

Hound Dog-you must be talking about a small block engine, as I am unaware of any fitment problems with the MSD distributor, or any other distributor for that matter, with Victor FE intakes. They don't make a Jr. for the FE. Thanks for the concern and heads up though.

The only firmnet problem I have seen with MSD distributors is some of them don't have the oil pump drive rod hex broached deeply enough into the shaft. About .100 too short. This was rare, about one in fifty.

Not a problem with my engine as I am using a Petersen external oil pump.
