I am rebuilding the original tach drive distributor for my 72 small block.
I have some questions:
1) There was a white nylon cup shaped washer or shield at the upper
part of the distributor, right where the felt washer goes. This thing
was cracked into several pieces. It looks like it may be an oil shield.
Any idea where to get a replacement? Is there such a thing as a
distributor rebuild kit?
2) Where would the part number/date code be for this distributor?
All I see are three digits/letters like "7 2 O'
3) What color should the distributor body be painted? Engine
color?
4) Anything I should look out for as I rebuild this? The end play
looks very good.
Thanks for any advice.
