Perhaps the carbon "button" that contacts the rotor?

We stock the rotors, and the distributor spacer button as shown in the pics above. The carbon button that contacts the rotor is built into the distributor cap….. and we stock that too. Just call our sales office to order. Those items are not all listed in the online store so you have to call.
