1970 440+6 - Vacuum Advance can Style

[72ls5fla]

I have a 1970 440+6 manual trans motor
car was built OCT 6/1969

what style VAC advance should the engine have?
I have seen two different types for 1970 - guess they changed mid year or later in production.

Thanks - Bill

I don’t know the answer. But maybe this will be of some help. Scroll roughly half way down the page to the vacuum advance. Might call him and see what he has to say if you are looking to buy one.

4406 will not have the solenoid retard on the dizzy. The dizzy should be a prestolite dual point with regular vac advance , that dizzy should be a cast iron base... if I’m not mistaken... ask Ray at Halifaxhops on FBBO.

i have the original distributor with the VAC ADV can on it.
plating all fudged up
want to replace while restoring it.

my late production (JUNE 16 70) 440 SixPack challenger had a different VAC ADV can than this does.
was just wondering if what I have is correct for the production date listed.

You can by the vac advance currently as a repop. Tony’s May have that.
