The distributor has been a proven reliable ignition source in Motorsports in any platform. Handles big injectors, tighter spark plug gaps, high rpms and is super simple to diagnose if there is a issue, very easy to set and check with a timing gun to verify what your laptop reads is what the engine see's. Adjusting the crank reference angle to truly lock in in timing is another plus. Lastly it is easy to maintain. There are more pros than cons when using one. I switched over when there was a ignition module/coilpack issue period back in the late 90's. It has been a flawless system ever since. The next wave is the smart coils.

No, it's a hydr roller.
