stock replacement distributor
we are reinstalling the wiring harness in the trans am. i have an accel distributor, i'm pretty sure it's jegs part #110-59107C. it does not have the same connectors as the original stock distributor, so the wiring harness does not plug into it. does anyone know where i can get a stock replacement distributor that with plug into the stock wiring harness?

I don't believe there is one for the ccq-jet cars (H engine code) and you can't get a new one from GM anymore either.

yeah, figures. what about other engine combos and other years? would an LG4 car have the same distributor as my L69? what about the TPI's and the TBI's?

I do believe you should be able to use any lg4 distributor. IIRC they have like a 6 or 7 pin ign module in them (slept a little since I had my 84). If I'm not mistaken, the 85 TPI was the only year to use the same dist. Anything 86+ (f-body) went to the divorced coil. I do remember my parents 86 Caprice having the roller block lg4 with the cap-in coil and now that I think about it, the lg4 was still available up to 87 in the f-body. Not certain if they still used the cap-in-coil though. Don't take that as gospel though...

85-86 LB9 F-body and and 85-91 Vette L98 distributors will work for you. They just have a unique cap which is big-cap HEI style, but with 4 screw hold downs (similar to the 2 screw hold downs in 87-up small cap HEI distributors.
