Fred's  question made me go look at my Dist. & Advance.  The dist. that came  
with my car is a #40480A dated 1-59 and it had a 7-14-10 vac. advance that I  
replaced with a 5-11-7.  A complete spare I have is a #40698A dated 6-60  and 
it has a 2-6-3 vac. advance.  One more spare I have in pieces is a  #40480 
dated 3-59 with a 4-11-7 vac. advance.  So, all I know is, I have  alot of junk 
that means nothing.   Kent Shrack 1960 TR3a (TS78563)  with 86mm jugs.

I can't help too much except to note that all of the 40480 distributors  
ultimately superseded to the 40698, and all would have originally had the  
54411480 advance unit.
