I have a distributor off my 68 Z-28 and it has a metal tag around the shaft instead of being stamped. Has 1111075 DELCO REMY 466 on the tag. What did this really belong too?

1965-
passenger car/327
Chevy II/283 & 327
Chevelle/327
Canada Passenger car/327
Canada Chevelle/327

On the same metal tag should also be a date code. Should be a 4 digit code something like 5A28 witht the first digit the calendar year (5=1965) second digit the month (A=January) and the last two digits the day of the month. (28= 28th day)

The distributor is cast iron? Not aluminum, right??

I think the last year of the cast iron dist. body is 66.

For sure the 68 would have the aluminum body shaft with the #s stamped on the body with no tag on it.

Yes, it's a cast distributor. Was hoping it was the original..oh well.

The "466" is the date code, but the middle character should be a letter, not a number - are you sure it isn't a "G" instead of a "6"? At any rate, it's a 1964 distributor.
