Default Re: Anyone know if a NOS remanufactured distributor is a bolt on

No way! The slot in the front of the camshaft is offset and as a result the distributor will only fit one way and that is not also 180 degrees opposite. That's a surefire way to break the ears off the distributor housing when you attempt to tighten the three bolts attaching the distributor to the timing gear cover.
