Title: Boss 302 distributor points cam C9AZ-12210-A or Motorcraft DF-371
Post by: shelbydoug on May 07, 2021, 07:45:35 PM
I need a  Boss 302 distributor points cam for a rebuild on my distributor. I didn't expect them to be common and thought someone here reading this might have one available?

This is the distributor points cam used with all the dual point/dual vacuum advance distributors in the 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, used in the Boss 302, 351c Boss and CJ, 428 scj, 429 cj.

You can't use the standard cam in these distributors. The points mounting plate mounts the points higher in order to clear the arm from the vacuum advance. As a result the hex cam is higher in those distributors to align with the rubbing blocks on the higher mounted points and also has that distinctive recess cut into the top for the bottom of the rotor to clear.

You can see that groove in this picture and makes these cams instantaneously identifiable.

This is the standard part. It has no groove in the top of it.

I have two to trade if anyone is interested. One with the 289hp advance notches.

Anything, just not pitted. A used one would be fine.
