Century Performance Center, Inc. :: Mallory Distributor Applications

UPDATE: IMMEDIATE RELEASE - Mallory has discontinued a variety of distributor applications and styles. This affects "mostly" Tach Drive applications (distributors with connectors for cable-driven mechanical tachometers, and applications that are not what they consider popular enough sellers. The application guides (for now) may still show these discontinued distributors.

If you already know the series you need, just click on the related application guide link below. As an added benefit, we have listed service parts on each application guide. If you need explanations of each style series, please continue reading below this list first.
