Not everything has an “LS” engine in it, as my 69 year old buddy in Indianapolis who gets phone calls from carb work to point type distributors for a huge crowd that wants to keep it original, from stickers, batteries and even period correct tires.

Thanks again PAWS 72. That phone number is in my spiral note book.
Hey Paws,I live in Indy, could you give me the contact info for your Indy buddy who does points work? I have a 73 VW Beetle too and I need some work on my distributor for it. Thanks!

Hey “Paws”? His name isn’t Greg B? I known and worked with him since 2002! I am putting camshaft bearings in my LS for my 67 C10. I built the 4L60 last winter so I can get OD.
P.S. Put some 400 grit over a nail file, push/pull between points about 6 times. Clean with air and rag, grease the lobe and set gap. It will run then. They get damp with temp changes and loose continuity. No resistance, stronger coils primary, sparks when they open. Omaha
