SBM Billet Distributor w/Blk Cap

The SBM Billet Distributor w/Blk Cap from PERTRONIX IGNITION is a high-performance, plug-and-play ignition solution engineered for small block Mopar engines seeking reliable spark distribution without complex wiring or tuning. Built for street machines, classic restorations, and performance builds, this Flame-Thrower distributor eliminates the maintenance headaches of traditional points-based systems while delivering consistent firing at any RPM range. Whether you're tuning a carburetor-fed small block or upgrading an aging ignition system, this billet-constructed distributor provides the foundation for dependable engine operation.

The core engineering centers on a billet aluminum housing with a black cap, paired with an internal magnetic pickup that requires no breaker points or condenser maintenance. Vacuum advance functionality responds dynamically to engine load, optimizing ignition timing across idle, cruise, and acceleration phases for smoother throttle response and improved fuel economy. The socket-style terminal configuration accepts standard female-end spark plug wires, ensuring compatibility with most aftermarket harnesses and allowing quick swaps during tune sessions. The 4.95 lb weight and compact 7.5 x 6 x 20 inch footprint integrate cleanly into tight engine bays typical of vintage Mopar platforms.

Technicians and enthusiasts restoring or modifying small block Mopar engines—including 273, 318, and 340 platforms—will appreciate the plug-and-play design that minimizes wiring errors and cuts installation time to under an hour. The magnetic pickup eliminates the reliability concerns of worn mechanical breakers, making it ideal for high-mileage builds or daily drivers where consistent starts matter. Installation requires only basic distributor positioning knowledge; once mounted on the engine block with proper initial timing set, the vacuum advance handles load compensation automatically. Compatibility spans most small block Mopar configurations equipped with standard distributor mounting provisions and conventional ignition circuits.
