    Anyone have the GM part numbers for these HEI components, I'd like to try them before sending out my distributor for a 'professional' recurve!
    Thanks.

    Mitch,
    You can't buy the parts from GM. Dave Ray (Ignitionman) gave the following advice on an Oldsmobile BB.

    "375 center. 41 weights give 20/21 crankshaft degrees of timing, found in late 70's/early 80's Chevy Suburban, same as in Chevy crate and all ZZ series engines dists."

    "No, new centers and weights are NOT separately available from GM, nor from the aftermarket. However, if you wish, a complete shaft assembly from a ZZ series Chevy dist has them, for a mere pittance complimentary charge from GM of only $151.90 each."

    Lots less from a wrecking yard.

    Thanks Larry. Guess it's time to ship off the distributor to John and have it done right!
