Buying a "remanufactured" distributor only counts as doing yourself a favour if you're a masochist who likes unreliable cars. The "remanufactured" distributor you'd get from RockAuto is just as pathetic in quality and dependability as the "remanufactured" distributor you'd get anywhere else.

Not really, got reman dizzys in all my mopars i drive my cars everyday and take em to the track get great mileage and performance very dependable. Of course when i order dizzys i inspect them for slop or play, like any other part i buy. But when i put H.E.I in my mopar thats when dependability went to **** lol.

Most remans from the parts stores cover a big range of applications say 10 years so they are kind of set in the middle. Look at a RA listing on what they fit for example, you might get lucky and it is fine if not you have to live with it.


This one fits them all!:rofl:1961-75

Remanufactured; Includes points and condenser
Since day one, REMANUFACTURING, the renewal of worn parts back to new or better performance, has been the core of our business — and A1 CARDONE products are the highest quality remanufactured parts in the automotive aftermarket.

That’s because they don’t just replace broken components — they completely disassemble every worn part, also known as a “core”, and thoroughly clean and inspect every component. Through reverse engineering, their engineers pinpoint original equipment design weaknesses through examining common wear areas. They incorporate fixes into their renewal process as needed to produce reliable products you can count on.

Features & Benefits:
  • All electronic module components are 100% computer tested to ensure full functionality.
  • Automated test equipment verifies signal strength, correct polarity of wire harness, air gap, crank reluctor tooth size, as well as ignition coil and pickup performance
  • CARDONE uses the right gear hardness for the appropriate application. If the gear is too hard, it will damage the cam; if it's too soft, the gear itself will be damaged, potentially causing severe engine damage – possibly even engine failure.
  • O.E. components with consistently high failure rates are 100% replaced or repaired to meet or exceed O.E. performance.
  • Precise machining tolerances prevent oil leakage, poor timing, setting of the "Check Engine" light, and premature failure.

Sounds like the OP is wondering if there are after-market distributors. I have never seen one, but you can upgrade your ignition system using a factory distributor. For the early points distributor, I used a Crane Cams XR700 on my 1969. It fits a wheel with slots over the points hex cam w/ optical pickup. You can still buy on ebay new. But, it keeps the ballast so isn't HEI and I had the optical pickup fail on one (in my 65 Newport). For HEI, you can fit Ignitor II or III. If a later electronic distributor, you can trigger a GM 8-pin HEI module. Also use the GM external coil which connects to it via a GM cable. 85-95 GM V-8 trucks in junkyard or buy the kit from Trailbeast here.
 
Ice ignition systems will make a custom setup but it will cost you.

NewHalifaxhops, I hope this is from A1 Cardone, and not from you.
A1 Cardone has the worst garbage I have ever seen. I have received so much of their stuff, that was bad right out of the box. I will not buy anything from them, unless there is just no other option.
20 plus years ago they really did have good products, and great customer service. No longer that way.
PS: Standard Motor Products is not much better.

No I bring them back to the part number specs, but have been doing some customs lately for some reason, the best was reverse engineering a Mr. Norms turbo car one so he had a spare. That was fun for sure. Prob never happen again. Guy on c body has a weird cardone, was running fine then all of a sudden after a year it started going to far advance. Man they threw big cam plate in it and it must have freed up, kind of walking him through it now to help him out.
his orig is on the left

Any time I get one as a core I just strip it for the good parts, easy to ID no numbers at all on the old ones and no tag on the newer ones.

That is just about the largest cam plate mopat made 34 at the crank.

I rebuild mine to the stock specs the number on the distributor calls for. I have done custom ones also and a few clones, but will not tag the clones, the buyer has to put the tag on I will not do it.
