Distributor Gear Bronze .006in Oversize Chevy

The Distributor Gear Bronze .006in Oversize Chevy from MSD Ignition is a precision replacement component engineered for small-block and big-block Chevrolet engines requiring performance-level ignition system reliability. This oversize bronze distributor gear compensates for wear in high-mileage engines and addresses the timing issues common in street and racing applications where stock gear clearances have degraded. Designed for enthusiasts and professional technicians, this component restores proper ignition timing accuracy when factory specifications no longer suffice.

Bronze material selection provides superior wear resistance compared to standard iron gears, reducing friction and extending component lifespan under continuous-duty conditions. The .006-inch oversize specification accommodates worn distributor shafts, ensuring a snug fit that eliminates slack and backlash in the ignition timing chain. This precision engineering maintains consistent spark delivery across engine RPM ranges, critical for fuel mixture ignition and combustion efficiency. MSD Ignition's manufacturing standards ensure dimensional accuracy that directly impacts distributor rotor alignment and dwell angle stability.

Street rodders, classic car restorers, and high-performance engine builders benefit most from this oversize gear when rebuilding or refreshing aging Chevrolet distributors. Installation requires removal of the distributor from the engine block and careful measurement of shaft wear to confirm .006-inch oversize specification compatibility. Verify your distributor model and shaft diameter before ordering to ensure proper fitment. This single gear replacement offers a cost-effective solution to timing inconsistencies without requiring complete distributor replacement on otherwise sound units.
