Billet Aluminum electronic distributor for all Studebaker V-8, 1956 to 1964, including Avanti R1 and R2.

A maintenance-free magnetic pickup is responsible for triggering this ignition. This pickup is accurate to within 1° at any rpm so you won’t have to worry about points float or “burbles” at top end speeds. The pickup is triggered by a precision reluctor that is attached to a hardened steel shaft. For increased stability, a sealed ball bearing is used to guide the shaft.

For optimal performance, we include a 45,000 volt coil with the distributor.
