I'm not sure if the distributor for the Tiger does not have a unique number; I only have the one that came in my Tiger as reference. Z5TF-12127-C; I thought for some time that this was a replacement

All distributors have mechanical advances. Most have vacuum advance, also - mostly for better fuel economy. Performance distributors only have mechanical advance (289HP), because those engines don't

Just checked the number on an old distributor I have on the shelf. It's a dual point with no provision for vacuum advance. The number is C50F-12131-B Would this be a HiPo unit? Bob H ________________

Ron, You're a good man. I hadn't gotten to it yet. Jerry, I highly recommend the Mannel book. It is incredibly comprehensive, year by year. It is well worth the $40 to $50 it costs (I'm guessing here
