I have my distributor off to put a Pertronix ignition in it. On the mounting surface is a cavity where the vacuum ports is. My rubber in the cavity crumbled. I can't find this rubber seal anywhere; Bob Drake, Dennis Carpenter, etc. Any suggestions? The cavity looks too large and deep for a conventional O-ring. Thanks in advance for your response.

I think it comes as part of the gasket kit.

The gasket kit I received from Bob Drake did not have it. Are there any other kits that do?

I have them divorced from a kit. ken ct. You must remove old one along with the tubeular like rivet to install new one. Pry out with a small screwdriver or run a tap into the rivet and try to remove that way. Ive changed dozens of them. 1-203-260-9780 or email. PS this part never or now comes in a gasket set.It is sold or sold as a separate part 2 pieces the rubber seal and the special short hollow rivet like piece in brass. ken ct. Evedidently no longer available. I have some of them from when they were available. ken ct. This message was edited by ken ct. on 4-30-17 @ 5:29 PM

Don't be scared to have an extra in your car that's tuned up with points in it. I have had 2 with pertronix go out. Back to points runs like a champ. My 2 cents.
