Thanks , all my reference books did not have the info . BOB .

Bob Kelso

Found another that i cant find the info on , #1111930 , date code 9C21 , What reference book did you use to find these ? I would buy it if it is available . Thanks BOB

Pacecar

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

pcard

I use 442.com a lot.

Bob Kelso

I went to 442.com and looked up another distributor i have but it was not listed , number 1112027 , date code 0E9 . Any other sources to look at ? Thanks BOB

pcard

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

Pacecar

Hi Bob - how much would you want for the 1112027 distributor ? Right date for my car - 1970 Buick 455 Auto

Bob Kelso

My mistake , i had a box of Olds distributors and never looked at the gear , i just wrote numbers down .I would take $25 plus shipping if you want it . It turns freely and does not have any wires or cap . It has the vacuum advance but i dont know if it works . Shipping from zip 60034 . BOB . .

Pacecar

Sorry to take a while getting back. My zip is 14428.

Please let me know the shipping and I will get it out to you. Send me a PM
or just reply to this with mailing address
thanks

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).

Bob Kelso

Sorry for the late reply , i was out of town and the one e-mail i sent was returned , not deliverable . Shipping is $8.00 via USPS . My address is 12314 Price road , Hebron Illinois , 60034 . Thanks BOB .

Pacecar

Hi Bob - sent a check out for the Buick distributor. Likewise I am sorry - it has been a busy year

Bob Kelso

Bob Kelso
