I'm trying to time my motor but I don't know what distributor this is. It has no marking on it as far as I can tell. It came on an unknown rebuilt 1600 in my bus. Thanks guys.

Yeah I was guessing its an 009 but I found it weird that there is no part number stamped on it. I didn't remove it to look all around but used a mirror to check out the back side for one. No luck.

if there is no part number stamped in it then you have a cheap Chinese clone 009

That's what I was thinking. It will have to work for now.
