Ole49GMC 'Bolter O Joined: Apr 2022 Posts: 9 New Ipswich	Does anyone know how to identify what year a distributor is from? There is a manufacturers part number on the spare? distributor and it is marked in yellow paint 216 on the outside. It looks a lot like the distributor that we have in our 1949 GMC Pickup with the 228 engine.
