1942-44 Distributor 21A-12127 Ford re-engineered the distributor in 1942 and it has become the favorite for hot rodders due to it’s simple design and reliability. If you’re lucky enough to have one, you may wish to rebuild it for your hot rod project.

NOTE: Harman-Collins Distributors use a different firing order. When using our cap on a Harman-Collins disregard the original Ford firing order molded into the cap.

Use parts 1 , 2 and 3 to change a later 51A distributor to the more popular 21A crab style.
