    Default 4age 16 distributors interchangable?

    hey guys, ive got a 4agze bare motor
    and i just wanted to know what distributors i can use..
    preferably electronic. it was given to me for my 86 project
    and not much is known about it - no intake, dissy and different rocker
    covers(so i cant really identify it)and are all 16 valve dissy mounting holes

    I dont know much about 4age with carbs but i seem to remember a modified 4k dizzy being used for the vacuum advance function.

    Pretty sure the normal 4age dizzy cant be used or its difficult and not worth the effort too get working.

    any 4age dissy will fit, but they are different internally, from CAS(cam angle sensor) i believe off GZE's(may be wrong) that run coilpacks, Bigport dissy 3 wire, and i believe smallport are 5 wire

    thanks for the info guys, helped me get an idea.. yeah the later gze ran a cas and coils i believe..
    and not too worried about ignition timing at the moment but i have seen the msd timing computers working well with 4ages
    so probably something along those lines.. or i could just lock it out lol
