Can anyone tell me what kind of distributor this is? Is that the condenser attached to the side of it?

Full Version: ignition system
Distributor: I don't see any vacuum dashpot hanging off the side of the distributor body, so it isn't a stock distributor. Probably a "009" centrifugal-only one.
The small sliver can hanging off the side of the distributor is indeed the condensor.
Wire: That's the oil pressure "idiot light" sender. Turns on the oil pressure light when the pressure is very very very low.

Thanks!
Can the idiot light sender be replaced with a oil pressure gauge in same location?
