Second one I've bought.

Decent distributor for the price, worked good on the last one with no problem, sold that motor and got another so I bought another one of these. Remember to buy the pig tail #91012343 to go with it as it doesn't come with it.

I needed to replace a module, cap, and rotor on my old HEI distributor. This entire distributor was cheaper than those parts. It works great on my 350hp SBC 350.
