This is for standard rotation 351w, as is the red cap version. I dropped this in, set timing to 12 degrees and the boat has never ran better. It does come with some springs to change the curve, but it worked perfect out of the box for me.

Fit like a glove with the correct splines. Fitted this to my 351 Windsor. Easy to tune.Update. Dropping to 4 stars. I reset the gear to get a little more timing without messing up my cables. I found rust inside the shaft on the oil pump side. Was this a refurb? It is still running well so I am not going to change it. But sloppy QC work by Pertronix. Hope that is the only place they got sloppy…
