12 cylinder dual coil ignition distributor
 

I got this with some other hotrod stuff and trying to figure out what it fits. Its new, twin coils and 12 cylinders. Not sure but a guess was a 12 cylinder K model Lincoln which i think used the same cap as a twin 6 Nash. Stuff i found online looked close and was for a Jaguar but they had screws to hold the cap on and 1 coil pickup.

There is a similar one one Flea-bay called a Shurhit brand. The Ferrari 12 cyl
maybe? Aviation or marine also possible.

Something i just noticed is the sparkplug wire holes are threaded. For a airplane wouldnt it be sealed ignition for radio frequency?

Aviation engines have always been set up for magnetos with exception to automobile engine conversions. That looks like the old Autolite dual ignition set up as used on the Nash 6 and Ford V8s. They were popular for dual plug heads in boat racing. There were dual six and dual 8 types. You just need the correct cap.
