What you need will look just like this but will have a different vacuum advance unit

Domingo from what I could find that might be an early or mid-50's distributor, read one post that referenced an early Hemi application it was a dual point.....

Yep the one Joe posted is the one you need. I may have an NOS vacuum advance unit around here somewhere. To save buying an original you could have a fake carb tag made and build one out of any RB dual point point distributor with the right configuration to match the one you need.

Yep that's the way to go. The vacuum advances are still easy to find NOS
