I have a 1961 Face Vega fitted with a Chrysler 6.3 engine,
unfortunately the original distributor was sent for rebuild but has been
lost. I have now obtained a replacement distributor for a 6.3 engine but
it is approximately 3/8 inch short on the drive, I have spoken to a
mechanic who works on these engines and he thought that the 7.2
distributor was slightly longer which proved to be correct. Could you
confirm from my engine number, first line on engine TY7 second line on
engine 212 third line 63, whether I have a 6.3 engine or a 7.2 engine or
any other information which will help me to confirm the size of my engine.
The original distributor which was lost was fitted with twin contact set.
I also require a thermostat housing, could anyone identify the Mopar
part number or any other makers part number so that I can try to find one
I wanted to post this n the forum but couldn't see how to do it
Thanks for your help
