The distributor rotation on my 56-235 is CLOCKWISE with the main body of the vacuum advance on the left side. The vacuum advance unit on my 1960 is on the right side and the resource I'm using (Second Chance Garage)shows it as rotating COUNTER-CLOCKWISE. The distributor number for both the C & C-C rotation is 112403. I'd like to drop in a mini-HEI but am not anxious to screw up my new cam/oil pump.
Is that correct or a mistake in the SCG literature? The 1960 engine, generator rotation is still clockwise. Does the 57-60 engine use a different distributor drive gear on the cam to accomplish the C/C rotation?
In addition, that would reverse the location of the plug wires on the distributor cap...the same 153624 but going in a C/C direction from #1.
Am I missing something here??? Sure would appreciate some clarification.
