Hi fellows
I bought a pertronix rebuild kit for my used Distributor
After doing some research there are a few parts I should start with
that dont come in the kit.
A centre cam stamped 375
fly weights stamped 49
and a vacume can stamped 10
if anyone has some or all of these parts Im interested in purchasing
these parts or the whole distributor??
Thanks ! Greg

Good call Clint!
I do have the original points distributor but its on a shelf.
I have converted to HEI
The HEI in my car now is from an unknown source and works great!
But as this hobby goes we are forever tinkering...
I have a second HEI and a Petronixs upgrade kit and before I put it together
I have done some research and to kinda tailor the ignition curve
to my needs ( I think as Im no expert) I need to start with the parts listed.
This is the kit:
Does anyone know where I could get
GM part number 01894379
its the shaft and centrifugal weights
for a ZZ4 hei in a crate engine
also think corvettes used it??
Carl?
Also I notice I posted this in the wrong
years..
Carl could you put this thread into the
65 to 70 section ?
thanks
Does anyone happen to know
the part number of the vacuum can on
a ZZ4 hei distributor?
napa sells echlin versions of them
I would like to get the same one.
thanks Greg
GregFound this. The post by IgnitionMan seems relevant. He calls it up as 69120 vacuum advance, but he has some pretty strong caveats.I've also seen numerous references to the melonized gear on the ZZ4 HEI, apparently required for the roller rocker cam?
