Cap/Rotor question....screw amazon....

77 F250 400.

Ordered a cap/rotor from crapazon and its the wrong one. The rotor is the newer style (87ish+), and wont work on the 77s Dizzy.

So im assuming the cap is also for a newer style. Question is, the cap clips on the same but is it the same, persay, as the older style cap?

That way i can buy just a rotor and not a rotor and cap. The only differenve i noticed where longer electrodes, but im not sure if the ones on the 77 were just burnt down that bad.

Pics?

My newer style 302 cap has a spacer thing that makes the whole works quite a bit larger. I think the intent was for the later hotter ignitions so it didn't arc around in the cap.

Unless your cap came with the spacer it wouldn't be a drop on swap though. And the plug wire ends would be different. (post vs the older socket style)

No mine dont have the older style wire ends. 77 is duraspark with the big cap and male terminials.

Like i ssid, it *looks* the same, but i wanted to make sure.

Went to autovalue had them run the part numbers, the cap will work. Thanks
