The 930 distributor is for 1969 350 - 4 barrel, looks to be correct for W-31 also. Just did an online search to look them up

Hey Bob, the 1970 engine assembly manual for series ABCE does not list that one. I would check some earlier engine assmebly manuals.

Did they skip any letters of the alphabet when stamping the Julian date? This is done sometimes to reduce the chances of mistaking one letter for another if the stamping/engraving is not deep enough. (my company uses 20 letters instead of the normal 26) My dist. code is 9G15, which would be July 15th of 1969... if I decoded it right. It does not fit my build date, which is the fifth week of May 1969 (it was sold in June of '69).
