This is probably a question that has been answered a million times, but I want to know if you can put a msd pro billet distributor in a tpi car? Does the computer need to be hooked up to the distributor for the advance or can the pro billet and a msd box take care of it. Let me know thanks.

 

I just has a MSD pro billet distributor installed in my 1989 GTA 5.0 litre TPI engine with a blaster coil. They make a replacement which is worth the investment.

 

What is the product number of the msd distributor for the tpi?

 

The distributor is a Pro-Billet Late Model GM V8 PN 8366. You will need a blaster coil with this distributor. It hooks right up to all the existing wiring. I have not installed a multi spark ignition box; however, it can be incorporated into this inginition set up. These can be viewed on the MSD web site and you could discuss it with their technical staff.

 

i bought a direct replacement for my 89 iroc 350, with the seperate coil, it was $400 but have you checked pricing on a brand new replacement??, about the same, and this msd is much nicer,

 

the real question is does anyone know if the car can run if the distributor is not hooked to the computer? Can you run a standard msd distributor in a tpi car?

 

MSD #8366 retails for $289.00, in the mailorder catalogs...
