distributor makers/ dates

Post by matt506 » Thu Nov 16, 2017 6:02 pm

Any idea how to tell manufacter of the early 151 distributors?
My motor has a 73 epa tag but wondering if this is the correct early distributor?

PrestoLite assumed manufacture from AutoLite in the early 60's. They share similar part numbers.
