Accel 31034 fits stock Delco points distributor and the MSD 8519 AMC distributor, as I've used it on both.

Crane also sells one, but don't have part number handy. 

Hope this helps,RD

I'll have to see if I can find the brand and specs for the one in my 73 - adjustable stop and adjustable rate. Works great and was a simple install because it was a perfect fit.

I have used the Crane unit on several cars, but I have no part number for it.

Crane 99601-1
Accel 31034
https://www.summitracing.com/int/search/part-type/distributor-advance-kits?N=4294926232%2B400078%2B400020

Crane kit includes a limit plate, to limit total vacuum advance, and springs.

I use the limit plate, but ordered it separately.

Hope this helps,RD
