Most of the local suppliers order from a central warehouse. Two stores brought in a pair,they were all aftermarket. I asked about visiting the wareouse and was told it was not possible.
Asking one store to bring in the entire inventory might be a push. Paul

Understand Paul. I am lucky I can just walk out back and look at most of the local shops. It was actually Canadian Tire where we got the last set. Of all places.

I got my long slot (732, I think) for my 499 distributor that way. I used to check at almost every parts store. (I say almost since I never stopped when my wife was in the car!!) A guy at O'Reiley's asked what I was looking for, and when I told him, he called all the other stores in the area, and asked them to check their stock. When that netted nothing, he ordered 3 distributors for me to check out. None was a 499, but one had the 732 cam. He allowed me to purchase the distributor, exchange the shaft, and return it.
Now that's a friendly parts store!! |
