70 GT500 distributor dates
« on: April 05, 2023, 09:17:54 AM »
Wondering if a reasonable range of date codes has been established for the replacement distributors retrofitted into the 70 GT500s

I?ve seen Ed mention they had Fall dates.  Have seen 70 owners reference late August dates.

As i expect no solid data on this,  wondering if there are reasonable book-end dates that might establish an acceptable range.   Perhaps as wide as 9H thru 9K.

I think your range is reasonable, I wouldn't go much past that. Personally, I don't think I've seen past 9J
