Note: This Magnetic Pickup is a replacement for MSD Pro-Billet and Billet Distributors. It will not work on OEM or discontinued MSD distributors with a cast aluminum housing (cast housings require PN 8466).

The supplied magnet of the pickup assembly can only be installed in one position to operate correctly. The magnet has a black stripe on one end to indicate its polarity and correct position. This black line must point towards the pickup assembly as shown in the ﬁgure below. Also, the orange stripe must point towards the reluctor of the distributor.

1. Position the magnet on the bottom of the pickup mount. The black stripe on the side of the magnet

must face towards the pickup (Figure 1). The air gap between the pickup and reluctor should be between .018” - .030”.

2. Place a small bead of silicone sealer on the back of the pickup assembly and place it in the distributor housing. Most gasket silicone sealers can be used.

3. Use the supplied hardware to secure the pickup in the housing.

4. Route the wires through the base of the distributor and strain relief. Install the wires into the supplied 2-pin connector as shown in Figure 1.
