The Petronix 1383 was replaced with the 1385ls.
I have to find out if its correct for the 1958 318 distributor.
also the installation looks a little different. there more parts to the kit.

I just ran the Pertronix parts finder as a 1958 Plymouth Belvedere with a 318 (5.2L) and this was the result for the 1385ls:

"Fits my vehicle
Automotive 1958 Plymouth Belvedere 5.2L"

But, don't believe me, run your own check and/or confirm with Pertronix by phone (have your OE Autolite distributor number handy to tell them)

Hope it works for you.
