Four Speed? I take it is the tan cap your looking for with the correct markings? The repops do not have the correct markings and are brass instead of a silver zinc plate...

They are pricey and rare the 4spd cap will run about $300.00 they have rotors as well...

He doesn't have the correct ones with the markings etc...I previously tried..

I have a rebuilt 4spd prestolite by Frank Badalson...I believe it is the same as the 70 just you need a different P# tag. I don't have the name handy but I can get it later for the guy that makes the correct tags(same guy that sells them to Frank I believe). You can also ask him about the distributor 69 versus 70...

If it is the same I will sell it....

From my knowledge, I was thinking that the Prestolite dual point caps are all the same as being for the automatics or manuals. Also, the small block Prestolite cap is the same as well. NOS caps do turn up pretty often and they will usually sell in the $200 to $300 range, depending upon the vendor. The "Made in USA" that is embossed on the top of the cap is the dead give away to the correctness. There are the earlier style black cap that is out there as well, it will fit and function like the tan caps, but were used on the very early 66 models and down, so they bring a third of the dollars as does the tan cap.

I got this from Bill Overcash...70 is on the left 69 on the right...The difference is just the vacuum advance...

BTW Frank does not restore the vacuum advance. So either find an NOS one or he just freshens it up. Bill O. And the link Big D above supplied they restore the advances too.

Just curious is this for that Nascar race car your building? Didn't they use an ultra rare race distributor?

I bought an NOS cap from AMS a few months ago and it was $300 plus shipping.

The tan caps are NOT interchangeable for a single versus a dual point...Automatics got single points....
