Nope. My '84 LG4 was cc so were all the 82 up carbed engines. You'd have to go 81 or earlier to get a non-cc distributer. Why not just go with a new distributer. I've heard that the Summit HEI is great, same with Mallory and Accel.

All 82-86 EXPORT models (Canada) of Camaro and Firebird had NON CC distributors.

And the correct answer IS!!!...........................

1980 and earlier for a US passenger car. The final year of the old 2nd gen Camaro (1981) also used a cc-QJet. However, you want one with an integral choke assembly (not divorced) and that means 1974-up. Even if it's got an early-style hot-air-activated choke that's no biggie- just buy an electric choke element and bolt it in place of the old hot air element.

US Trucks used non-cc versions of the QJet up to about 1985-1986, depending on what size truck it was.

But the question was "non-CC distributor".

I have an '84 van w/non-CC carb and CC distributor. It has vacuum/mechanical advance and flat 4-wire connector.

Go figure.
