Crane Cams Crank Trigger Distributors

Crane Cams has announced the addition of Crank Trigger Distributors to its race billet distributors line. The four new part numbers are equipped with a large diameter, low profile distributor cap. This design helps avoid clearance problems. In addition, the caps are manufactured with solid brass lugs, which enable the transfer of the maximum amount of spark energy.

1000-1520Crane Cams has announced the addition of Crank Trigger Distributors to its race billet distributors line. The four new part numbers are equipped with a large diameter, low profile distributor cap. This design helps avoid clearance problems.

In addition, the caps are manufactured with solid brass lugs, which enable the transfer of the maximum amount of spark energy. The lightweight lower housing is machined from billet aluminum.

All of these new models include the use of a stainless steel shaft to increase the longevity of the distributor. The precision alignment of the shaft is achieved by the upper end being supported by a sealed roller bearing, and the bottom end supported by a sintered bushing. The overall end play of the shaft is held to a minimum during the manufacturing procedure.

All models come complete with an aluminum bronze material distributor gear. The Chevrolet version comes with an adjustable steel collar to compensate for possible variance in the engine’s block height. The precise tolerances of these made-in-the-USA distributors makes them a true ready to drop in race part.

Carrillo Forged Pistons and Connecting Rods for Ford 7.3L Godzilla

These pistons are forged from 2618T aluminum alloy and machined on dedicated CNC machine cells to tight tolerances. 2618 aluminum has a lower silicon content than other alloys. That makes the pistons stronger and more ductile—perfect for high-load, high-stress applications like superchargers, turbochargers, or nitrous oxide.  Related Articles – Fluidampr Harmonic Damper from Summit Racing
