I was surprised when I pulled my cap and found a dual point setup! Can anyone identify this distributor? I replaced the points with a Pertronix (and saved all of the old parts) for now. I want to replace the cap and rotor but need advice on what to buy.

Ugh! I'm out of town until next week. I'll get more info then.
Thanks!
 
I try to buy old NOS Echlin stuff. There are 2 caps on Ebay, Echlin AL129 12.00 plus 8.30 shipping auction no 304342834062 and a Echlin rotor AL 125 for 10.94 plus 5.90 shipping auction no 145184457076. These are old NOS made in the USA parts. These are for the dual point distributors. Single point is not the same! Jump on them!
 
I think the dual point distributors were made by Prest-o-lite and were usually on 4- speed cars.
 
All 1967 GTX 4 Speeds featured a Dual Point Distributor and
a Dana 60 Rear. No matter if 440 or Hemi.
I owned one in 1967 with a Hemi 4 Speed.

Only 440 Automatics came with single point, The 426 Automatics had Dual Points
 
You guys are something else. Halifaxhops is our local ignition wizard. He rebuilds, restores and sells NOS parts for ignition systems. Don't mess with that Napa garbage that is sold nowdays.
 
Need another part already.
