One of the many bits of bizarre trivia rattling around in my head says that the
Datsun 1300 pickup distributor works in a B.  I know that the head can be used
on a B, but the valves are smaller.

Has anyone tried this?  Are the point plates usable?  Would someone else please
do the legwork and tell us the results because I'm too lazy?

Thanks,
