Overview

TSP’s Pro Series Ready to Run Distributor kit is perfect for a street performance ignition upgrade. It features a CNC-machined billet aluminum distributor with a ignition control built-in. Spark for this kit is provided by the 45,000 V oil-filled ignition coil.

All TSP Pro Series distributors feature a top-of-the-line, fully adjustable mechanical advance.

Mechanical Advance & Circuit Board Module

An important feature on all Top Street Performance Pro Series distributors is the fully adjustable mechanical advance. This allows you to easily modify the distributor to achieve a variety of timing curves. Built using the latest circuit board technology, the included module eliminates the need for external ignition control, such as a CDI box. It also comes with a digital tachometer output. With a Pro Series Ready to Run distributor, just hook up your ignition coil, and you're good to go.

Included in the Ready to Run kit is a 45k Volt canister coil.

High-Powered Ignition Coil

TSP brings you the classic canister - sometimes called "beer can" - style ignition coil. Designed and constructed with our trademark attention to detail, you can be sure it'll perform exactly as described. With a whopping 45,000-volt output, you'll have more than enough spark for any performance distributor set-up.
