nickelroadster Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 The first thing you need is the Delco part # that you need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLong Posted March 28, 2015 Share Posted March 28, 2015 Show a photo of the mounting location on the engine. And the mounting pad, bolt pattern etc. I have several delco generator/distributor combinations that were used on the Series 80 and 81 Pierce arrow 1925-1928 engines. I have NO idea if one would physically fit or be close to what you need. The photo below is of a 1925 Series 80 engine in a very rare factory produced right hand drive car.GLong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedavisman Posted March 31, 2015 Author Share Posted March 31, 2015 here is my worksheet for numbers. It appears the 6Y and the 7U are extremely similar with the same electrics. some sources say 1 thing, others say something else.if I could get a 240 starter, 241 generator and distributor combo (one says a 1811 dist) (one says a 241 distributor) and an ignition switch 1172 I'd be a happy guy. Others may work so I don't want to say no. thanks for your helpjim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
