Can you use a single point cap in place of a dual point cap? Thanks

I've kept some old Standard Ignition AL-148 tan caps (new in boxes) with tall center towers that look just like the ones pictured above, but they have ~Made in USA~ cast on the top of the cap. Any opinions as to what years and engines they fit?
