The perfect upgrade for your ignition system, Max-Fire distributors from Edelbrock are ready to run out of the box. Ideal for replacing or upgrading from a points triggered distributor, they feature precision machining for a perfect fit along with a simple three-wire hookup for an easy installation (and no need to run an external ignition control box).

Max-Fire distributors use a centerless ground shaft with an upper sealed roller bearing and extra-long lower bronze Oil-Lite bushing for smooth operation. The high-output magnetic pickup and large paddle wheel reluctor deliver a strong trigger signal at high RPM for maximum performance. These features combine to provide unrivaled voltage to the coil—ensuring maximum performance from your engine. Each distributor includes a cap, rotor, retainer, and mechanical advance curve kit.

Consider pairing your Max-Fire distributor with a coordinating Edelbrock Max-Fire coil for maximum voltage output.

Features

  • CNC machined from 6061-T6 aluminum.
  • O-ring grooves for use in a fully machined engine block.
  • Cap and rotor are molded in quality 30% glass-filled polyester for durability and carbon tracking resistance.
  • Brass contacts and a stainless steel rotor spring for maximum conductivity.
  • Hardened iron drive gear for long service life.
  • Fully adjustable mechanical and vacuum advance for increased mileage potential.

Available in two levels of performance—Ultra-Spark 50 (50 ohms resistance/foot) and Ultra-Spark 500 (500 ohms resistance/foot)—the all-new universal high-performance Max-Fire ignition wires from Edelbrock feature the same high quality as the company’s model-specific sets, but give users the ability to tailor them to fit their V8 applications.

These wires have extremely high EMI/RFI suppression along with a very low resistance to help deliver the most spark possible. Their heavy-duty 8.5 mm diameter silicone jackets protect the Kevlar spiral-wound cores from heat, moisture, and chemicals. Preinstalled spark plug boots are available in straight or 90° versions. The straight-boot sets are “vari-angle,” meaning they can be bent and hold their position in tight areas to clear headers. They also include early-OEM socket style and late-style HEI plug distributor terminals.

Each Edelbrock Max-Fire kit includes eight spark plug wires (of varying lengths), eleven points-style terminals, eleven HEI plug–style terminals, nine straight distributor boots, nine 90° distributor boots, one distributor-to-coil wire, dielectric grease, and installation instructions. Installation requires the use of a wire-crimping tool.

Features

  • Available in 50 ohm and 500 ohm resistance/foot.
  • Heavy-duty 8.5 mm diameter silicone jackets.
  • Kevlar spiral-wound core.
  • Spark plug boots available in straight or 90°.
  • Early OEM socket style and late-style HEI plug distributor terminals included.
