Default Re: Is this 499 dist. real or fake?

All of my old distributors have a pretty ratty looking finish on the machined diameter, like the pictures Hihorse shows above. All have the step at the top but are machined there too. For what it's worth. If you are worried about it having been machined and re-stamped, just compare the diameter to a known distributor.
