1972 Distributor - I need the correct one. - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

We have a 1972 C10 with original 402 and someone in the past put in an HEI distributor. We are trying to put this truck back to an original points type distributor. However, I can't find any source to determine what the correct number is for this year and engine combination.

It is a 1/2 ton C10 with 402 and automatic transmission. Can anyone point me to a source or tell me what the correct distributor is?

Thanks,

Mike

Are you looking for original with the tag on it or a rebuilt?

Cardone 381835 is for 71-72 402
The original part number is 1112064
I suspect that its the same as a 350 of that year with a different curve on the advance.

I'm hoping to find an original that I can rebuild. Are you pretty sure on this number being the correct one?

If you do this, buy a pertronix or crane ignition module to install inside, distributor will look stock but perform like a hei best of both worlds. I have done this to two and it works flawlessly.

Thanks everyone for the help. I would never have found that number.

If you know anyone that has this distributor, please let me know. I haven't found any for sale yet but I'm sure they are out there.

Maybe I can help you. I bought a 72 BB Burb a couple of months ago and it has a HEI in it. As I was leaving with the Burb the seller gave me a box of parts and there is a distributor in it. I never looked at the distributor assuming it was the original from the 402. Its -38C right now and the box is in my unheated garage. Tomorrow whe the sun is up and its a balmy -25C I'll get the disributor and post the numbers off it on this thread. If its what you need and you want it we'll figure something out.

Thank you Already Gone!

Would you happen to have a good 402 oil pan??

72swbcamo · 12-13-2009, 11:46 PM

I have a 72, 350 and the dis. # is: 1112047. Don't know if this helps.

makamer · 12-14-2009, 01:55 PM

No thank you. I would really like to have an original which appears to be 1112064. Thanks

Please let me know if anyone has one. I hope Already Gone has one.

**Already Gone** · 12-14-2009, 08:27 PM

I think you are in luck.. I wrote the numbers down off my old distributor and I got 1112064 and just to the right of those numbers it has 2A7.

I've attached some pics of the distributor.

makamer · 12-15-2009, 12:17 AM

I'd love to have it. I sent you a PM to have you call me so we can work something out. Thanks
