I need a distributor for my 418 that I should be installing in a few weeks, so I was looking at Summit for an MSD and found two distributors. The details look exactly the same, so which one should I get?
MSD-8541

I just installed the 8541 on my cobra. Easy install and easily upgradable, just a couple stiffer springs and you can move your timing curve around. Also looks great.

How did you get a 351 dizzy to fit into a 5.0? The 351 dizzy in a lil bit longer and it takes a larger oil pump drive shaft.

I ordered it directly from Kooks, havn't got it yet. It's a universal X-pipe kit so it's not a direct bolt-on.

I'll take a pic of mine so you can see what it looks like. Ohh and its not the one for the 351 its a pro billet just like the 8541 (sorry for the confusion) made for our little 302's. Same look and internals.

My MSD box says 8451 instead of 8541 lol. But yeah, that's the one you want.
