    84 T1 distributor difference

    The 84 distributor is different from other years I’ve heard. How so? Is it strictly internal, or is it physically different as well?

    84 and 85 turbo motors got the smaller diameter , taller distributor when compared to the 86 and after dist

    they only work in 84/5 cars.. likewise the later fatter shorter distributors only work in the 86 and newer cars

    if you like those sort of things there is/was an accell cap for the 84/5 but you can't get one for the 86 & after dist and it's tan coloured like mopar caps from the 60's and 70's

    Thank you. I’ve got an 84 T1 Laser XE and I’ve been working at trying to round up year specific parts.
