    Looks 6 cyl step-down in origin to me.
  • That would put it in the 1950-52 range, correct?

    IAT-4009A - 1951-1952 all 6 Cyl. exc. Pacemaker.



    Information available on my web site @ www.hetclub.org/burr - can be found on Equipment Manufacturers Numbers. Also in my "General Information Handbook for Hudson Built Automobiles".

    The distributors "fit" from 48 to 54 and beyond. There are two basic designs that use different rotors, caps and point sets.. Other than that, biggest difference is the vacuum and centrifical advance curve. I run a 54 308 distributor in my '49 262, but I do have a 308 cam, a little higher compression,Twin H, and Pertronix ignition.

    Now that's something I didn't know - that the lables were color coded.



    Learn something every day. Thanx Hudzilla.
