    Nice love the Bubbas sticker , I don’t think they’re working on distributors anymore are they
     
  6. I recently put an unused one with minor shelf wear into one of my cars, put quite a few miles on it with no issues. They are fantastic distributors

    Holy jeebus! I've got one of those oil filter housings but I've never seen that type of cast Valley Pan. And those early Mt covers are pretty rare
