Corect Distributer for 442

I have a '70 4-speed 442 with OAI. Not W-30

The parts book lists the W-30 part for cars with ram air.

I have both 977 and 982 and can't recall which one goes in this car.

Thanks, everyone.

When it says 4400 with O.A.I., it means a W-30 car. The W-30 required a different advance curve. A 442 that only had a W-25 hood added didn't get a different distributor. You want the "exc. O.A.I." distributor, which is '982.
