With the release of the Holley HyperSpark EFI Distributor for Ford Small Block 260/289/302, there really isn't any excuse for not enabling ECU-controlled ignition timing on your Sniper, Terminator, or similar throttle body fuel injection system.  It's just that inexpensive and easy.

The price point of the Holley HyperSpark EFI Distributor puts it less than either a MSD  Pro-Billet or Ready-To-Run distributor.  And when coupled with the HyperSpark Ignition Box and HyperSpark Coil, this creates a unbeatable trifecta of ignition perfection that is 100% plug-and-play and can be installed in no time.  In fact, there are only three unterminated wires that need to addresses.  Everything else is click-connect Metri Pack connectors along with two ring terminals for power and ground.

This distributor is appropriate for Windsor engines with 8.2-inch block deck height (nominally, 221, 260, 289, and 302 CID.)  For Windsor engines with 9.5-inch block height (nominally, 351W) choose this distributor instead.

Holley has even found a way to simplify the process of phasing the distributor.  First, install the included clear distributor cap that physically locks the rotor into the phased position.   Next, rotate the engine to top dead center (0 degrees on the harmonic balancer) on the compression stroke.  Finally, Drop the distributor into place, lock it down, and install the regular distributor cap and you're done.  That terminal becomes the #1 spark plug tower.  It just can't get any easier than this!

You can expect that the Holley HyperSpark EFI Distributor will be a great distributor for any EFI system that requires only a crank sync signal.  For those who need a cam sync signal as well in order to implement full synchronous fuel injection or coil-per-plug ignitions, we recommend the Holley Dual-Sync Distributor.

Available in Polished Silver or Black Anodized Body

Now available with Cast or Steel Distributor Gear!

Until now all HyperSpark Distributors come with a cast distributor gear but Holley recently released the 565-322 HyperSpark for Small Block Ford Windsor engines that comes with a STEEL distributor gear. This distributor is a bit shorter so that it will fit underneath the throttle body on Holley's 8.2-inch Small Block Ford Hi-Ram EFI Manifold. Holley recognized that most users of that particular manifold would run a camshaft that requires a steel gear so that made it easy.  Based on our experience, the 565-322 does not work with factory-style intake manifold because the head of the distributor contacts the base of the manifold before the shaft is fully seated.

NOTE!  Ensuring that you use a distributor gear that is compatible with your camshaft is of CRITICAL IMPORTANCE. If you are unsure whether a cast or steel distributor gear is right for your camshaft, contact the camshaft manufacturer or a trusted engine builder familiar with your engine and ask what you should use. Don't accept "a hardened gear" as an answer. Both the cast and steel gears available here are melonized (hardened.) Ask specifically for the material that is to be used with your camshaft.
