Re: What is this distributor?
After a MSD electronic distributor module failure while in storage for a few months, I went back to traditional points in my 1972 402 Cheyenne, and retained them in my 1970 Blazer. Key is to only use NOS USA made Delco points with the separate condenser unit, points gap to .019", dwell at 30 degrees(recommended range is 28-32), and to ensure the distributor points cam is lubed with the correct lubricant. I also use NOS green stripe AC spark plugs in all of my vintage GM vehicles. Both the truck and Blazer start instantly in any weather, and run excellent and consistently. These will last several years with my below 1000 mile a year usage of either vehicle.
