Looking for marine dist for 312 interceptor marine. I have one but all the advancement parts are shot. Has to be marine with centrifugal advance. See attach photo for rotation. This is an auto lite but a lot of Mallory’s were used.

You have a pre-FORD buying of some AUTO-LITE divisions distributor.

The ID NO. IBL 4001A GOOGLED should give you a rebuilder and/or parts source.

Do you need a distributor with a tanged oil pump drive or a ¼” hex oil drive?

Looks like yours has the hex drive I need the tang. May work if I chang out the drive shaft but not sure how the hex drive shaft connects to oil pump I have a tang there also
Thank

It sounds the same as swapping Distributors on the 54 Y Blocks with tanged Parts. U will have to change Oil Pump and driveshaft to match the Distributor Hex Drive.

I went through my stack of Mallory distributors and none have the tanged drive for the oil pump.  If you can not come up with a tanged drive distributor, then I would suggest changing out the oil pump and oil pump to the ¼” hex drive versions and switch to the appropriate hex drive distributor that matches.

You might try this guy.  He specializes in Flathead stuff, but may be able to rebuild your original.  just a thought.     www.bubbasignition.com/
