RE: [Chrysler300] Cast iron electronic ignition...tach drive, not vacuum advance

Larry:

I have seen and bought a couple of the NOS (in the box) cast iron tach drive
distributors WITH vacuum advance but single point innards.  I had the
mechanical and vacuum advance mechanisms dialed in on a distributor machine
and they work fine for me.

I have not seen one without the vacuum advance however.  

Just curious, did you happen to notice if it had the slot in the housing for
the vacuum arm to attach to the point plate?  Maybe the vacuum pot was just
removed.

Probably Max Wedge as you suggested.  No need for vacuum advance if you only
drive it 1/4 mile at a time at WOT (wide open throttle).

I wonder if there was a Marine or stationary engine application?

At local show this weekend with the white F, a gent approached me wondering

if I could help him sell a Mopar cast iron distributor with factory
mechanical 
 tach drive and without vacuum advance.  Must be a max wedge or race  part.

He had three of them and got $300 for the first two.  Does this  interest 
anyone?  Still in the factory box.
