After a few years of servicing flathead stuff ( this is our 30th year at the Newport Hillclimb) i need some good cores !!

Starting with the two bolt crab distributor.

Send me two good crab units and i will rebuild one and send it back to you no-charge !!!
You guys hoarding them up break a couple loose !!!
Honest Bubbas two for one special is going on now !!!

For the later V8 guys , send me four crabs and i will ship you a new chevrolet conversion complete with resistor, distributor cap and rotor !!!!

Same deal for helmet dist's??????

Ken/Alabama · 08-11-2011, 08:39 PM

I will check, I think I have several of these . Do you need any of the G series 6 cyl distibutors ? I think that the housing is the same for the V8s.

Bubba, I'm still trying to figure out all of the nicknames peole use for parts. "Crab" distributor. Is that what I have on my 37 ? If so, I want to send you 3 or 4 cores and would like to get one good one back. Actually, I have 24 stud flathead in the process of being rebuilt if that makes any difference. Should I also send the mag?
