I tore apart a 1960 and a
1963 distributor and carefully examined them both for any differences. The
only difference I found was the shorter shaft on the 63 but it was easier to
find parts for. So I cannibalized and now have a 63 distributor that fits very
well in my 60.
Sorry to get in on this one so
late.... I can tell you one disadvantage of the dual point system.
It seems on my '59 that every time the car set for a few weeks one or the
other set of points would be corroded and wouldn't work right. Don't
know if this is just a humidity problem or salt air problem or what but I
finally got so tired of it I put in a mopar electronic system. I
normally won't do anything that wasn't factory but I gave up on that DAM^
distributor.
