MSD Distributor + MSD 4 Magnet Crank Trigger Kit

1. Modify and install mechanical advance distributor. (See

Modifying Mechanical Advance Distributor

, in

this document.)

2. Install MSD crank trigger kit. Orientate crank trigger wheel such that the arrow on the face of the

trigger wheel is between the 10 o’clock and 11 o’clock position with the engine at TDC. Position the
crank sensor such that it’s approximately in the middle of the adjustment range. Set sensor air gap to
.060”.

3. Wiring – note that sensor wiring may be different from what MSD instructions indicate. The Infinity

ECU can only accept falling edge VR/mag wave forms. If in doubt, verify sensor signal with an
oscilloscope.
