Hello all trying to ID this mag, the tag has no info or I can’t read it. The housing looks like someone ground on it for clearance. The shaft is short so I’m thinking you use a intermediate shaft? Any ideas Thanks Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
Ok I got it with a bunch of other parts and there were two mopar hilborn injection set ups So did they drive the mag off the pump? Sent from my iPhone using H.A.M.B.
Yes I believe so. Piggybacked. My buddy is a collector and I remember seeing something similar. New offset drives use a short base mag also but the ones I’ve seen had a hex drive. I think Joe Hunt keeps records of the old serial #’s. They can tell you what it’s for and when they built it.
I had a distributor drive for a Chevy (misplaced somewhere at the moment) with the tach drive out one side, a Hilborn PG150 pump and drive out the other. Where the mag or distributor would mount looked like a female version of what you have. I never had the ignition side. I remember a thread on here where the setup was described as a very early injection pump drive design that was abandoned due to fires (if a line came loose, even a little it would spray fuel everywhere including all over the exhaust).
The beauty of a mag is,,,,you can remove that base and swap it for another to fit almost any engine. The main bodies are pretty much the same,,,just different drive bases . Tommy
Its for a MOPAR you have to determine big block or small block by the direction that it spins. The points open away from the direction it spins.
Very similar to what I have / had, except the housing didn't go all the way down. There was a gap below where it would pilot in the manifold and a housing around bearings just above the drive gear (ball bearings, sub housing had a groove around the outside to pass the oil to the lifter galley).
