I guess as long as we are on this subject, are there any identifying marks on an original 1969 or 1970 2444 507 tan cap for the single point distributor engines?


Only thing I see on the ones I have are a little # 1 on the inside as shown.  :2thumbs:

The black cap is 65 and earlier,the original Prestolite cap,both tan and black have the Prestolite IBK1003 part number molded inside,if that number is not there it is an after market cap.

My tan caps all have a black gasket on the bottom, to seal it to the distributor.   :Twocents:

They're probably Atlas.

In original MoPar boxes?? 

No...    They are Nascar race caps.       

Got them from Cotton and Don White.

I think I have a black one with brass terminals and a gasket... Chrysler Marine application. 
I've never owned anything but a MoPar. Can you say that?

Since we have discussed the coil wire boots and distributor caps what about the rest of the boots on the cap??
I have attached two pictures for your viewing.
The first is from my 1969 440 Daytona that shows 5 boots that are 90 degrees and 3 straight.
The second is from my 1970 440 six barrel Superbird that shows 4 boots that are 90 degrees and 4 straight.
Did this change from year to year?
Were there specific wires that got the angled boots?
