I would recommend you not take the distributor out.

its not that hard.
but also can be reinstalled incorrectly and effect timing
definitely will have to be re-timed at a minimum if you pull it

best not to pull it
the part number is on the body of the distributor
google images might help with an example.

where can I find the part number on the distributor I have. Can I see it on the distributor on the car?


I just stuck a phone down beside the distributor and took random pictures until I could see the part number. No need to remove it.

A super simple thing to do without pulling the dizzy is to look for the connector for the trigger points. If it has a harness plugged into a connector like the black socket at the top of the dizzy in this pic, then it is a stock dizzy. Carb dizzies won't have that connector. Note also this dizzy is fitted with a non-rev limiting rotor like what you have now.
