Distributor Gear Size

What's the gear size on a stock GM distributor? I want to purchase one online through summit or jegs, I hate going to my GM dealer and getting the wrong part or having to wait 1/2 an hour for help. Thanks

Re: Distributor Gear Size

Depends on the distributor you have. The large cap HEI is different than the small cap HEI with the external coil.
