Ooph! Posted June 10 Author Report Share Posted June 10 (edited) Started out the morning prepared to pull the oil pump and remembered in my stash of stuff I had bought a Dizzy plate from California Datsun to use a Matchbox in an L16. Looking through the threads of swapping to electronic I knew there is a difference in pedestals but I'm not sure what nor how to identify them. The truck is a 73 with an L20b and it was using the L16 dual point Distributor, the Matchbox came with another truck so I don't know what pedestal it has, but it aligned wrong. Comparing the two pedestals Stacked to see the angle change The adjustment plates The new alignment with the electronics in the front Edited June 10 by Ooph! 1 Quote Link to comment
