I found a flaw on 2 OE. LT1 engines.
The composite distributor stub developed stress cracks both sides of the arm.
I currently made a proto type aluminum version to eliminate UNscheduled DISassembly.
Before dropping my 383 perfecting my 2nd admiral.
Gauging if any LT1 owners would like to eliminate this possibilty. if I make a batch. possible production.
Thank you in advance.
OE Proto fit test.

Nice find. Thanks. I thought I had this market covered.
I designed my version a few years ago. Just fabed up test fit 2 days ago. Last stage bore shaft depth.

I was by no means trying discourage your efforts!!!! There's definitely room for metal bodied one that isn't billet and it's price point👍
Just for you old LT1 guys. The oil pump drive for a Gen7 8.1L truck that was made from 2001 to 07 uses a all metal drive that will work in the old LT1. Its a gm part number 12568356
No sir. Moving forward. Mine is replacing my OE composite, I did not pay $150. Best part is I made it. I seriously looked in the past. I did not find TP. They must be new and recently released this stub housing. Thank you gent's.
