Delco-Remy made in Canada weird distributor......


Recommended Posts

Inside the distributor the plate is isolated and requires a separate wire to ground....... the screws holding the spring clips are isolated from the main body by a semi circular black insert......... seria lnumber is 1110090-7-L-2 and the 111 are stamped using a smaller die set....

 

could it be war time use in a radio truck for Canadian army CMP 1942 truck????

In the 40s Chevrolet had a setup that swapped the polarity on the points to even out point wear. That would require the breaker plate to float, and it may be what you are looking at. The system wasn't highly regarded and is often found disabled and the distributor wired for conventional operation.
