Hope this helps. Oh, by the way the one in the car is snug>

Cape Codder, thanks for taking the time to measure your distributer bodies. However, I'm not sure what it is that you measured. My upper body has a machined area where it mates to the base. When I measure the inside diameter of the body in the machined area I get 2.89" or about 73mm. How does that compare with yours?

Tom, if I'm understanding correctly what you mean by "alignment notches", mine appears to have two, so does that mean it's a repro?

Thanks for your help.
