This is the same distributor you linked but for a right hand engine (if that's what you have): https://www.nautiqueparts.com/product/distributor-breakerless-mallory-right-hand-reverse-rotation-351-ford-pcm-engines/ That's what I put in my 83 Ski Nautique with a 351 RH last year and it's been running great since. But as Keno pointed out, there are other options for RH engines. I personally wanted to go with DUI but for RH engines there was a 30 day backorder at the time. That may not be the case now. The first thing you need to do though is figure out what rotation you have. |

Lots of guys here are running the DUI distributor, which is marine rated and also comes in the reverse rotation variety. Summit has them, although I don't know about the back order comment from above. The bonus is that there is a performance increase, and your coil can be eliminated. There are some guys running an MSD distributor that is similar to the DUI, but I am not familiar enough to know if those are available in the RR configuration.

I like the DUI, and yes sir, Hal is correct, a one month back order on the part from Summit Racing. One question, how does the DUI distributor eliminate the coil? Is there any special tuning or any parts required, or simply eliminate the hook up to the coil and remove the existing coil? I assume that wire that usually goes from the distributor to the coil is eliminated? Thanks to everyone for your prompt advice it has helped.
