My drag link for my truck from rock auto site. There are a couple even cheaper above top of screen. As you can see they all have 914 part number, except the Delphi. Advance wanted $180 for Moog with again see 914 part number. I went with the $20 one because it's greasable and shipped from same...

Small pinion nut is a 10 spline, 1 1/8" across hex. The larger nut is 29 spline.

I would say this says it's not Siamesed.

I find pizza and beer work well also.

My guess is no Mallory's have smaller diameter cap. I do not know for sure, but I can't find any cross reference. Thanks

Looking for a distributor cap for a old RB Accel dual point As you can see it has a crack in cap. Yes I know I can get a new one at Summit or even a cheap aluminum terminal one for a 56 Chevy on Rock Auto. I'm just shaking the bushes to see if anyone happens to have one and wanted the shelf...
