Re: 59 AB Angle Drive Distributor
The right angle drive would be no different than the late style Flathead distributor rotation. Ford in Sweden made a similar right angle front mount that bolts to the early three bolt front cover. The mount from Sweden has the Ford script on it and looks very similar to the one pictured in post number 1. Any right hand rotation dist will work perfectly. Converting a distributor for the one I have from Sweden was easy. No gear was needed on the dist end instead the end of the shaft is an offset male tang that locates in the drives offset female slot. Just like the early Flathead front cover distributor drive but on a much smaller scale.
