............... that would be your average 396/375 horse or 427/425 horse COPO unit. As in, that would be a keeper! Got a date on it???

COPO PETE is right.
That is a very sought after distributor if the date code is in the right time period.Can you tell us what your date code is?

I have an L34 1111498 distributor to trade for a 499 unit. It is an August '68 date code. Willing to pay difference.

I am not looking to move the dist. I was checking to see if I had the correct dist for the 69 l78 nova I purchased.
Thanks all!
