I'm going to have to disagree with Art and Chris on the comment about it
not fitting the DM2 distributor. It does in fact fit that distributor. I know
because I've done it. The only problem for the DM2 distributor is the way
the rubber plug fits. I had to modify the plug slightly to get it to fit the
opening in the DM2. Other than that there is no difference in the mounting
plates.
