Just my incorrect assumption. Technically, it IS a distributor. Just not a battery-ignition distributor. I did not even look close until I got home and uploaded the photos and saw the unit is an IH. I thought maybe it was a Delco battery distributor like my Case DC had on it. The one on my Case had a right-angle drive and no way it would fit.
I guess I could just mount an external oil-filled battery coil somewhere and just hook it to my mag and make a battery distributor out of it. I don't have a shop to work in or many tools up there and would like to avoid any modification projects out in the woods.
That all said, I wish I had converted the crawler to a 12 volt system and stuck my Fairbanks Morse distributor on it before I moved it to the UP. Somewhere in my tractor-parts junk-pile I have a tang-drive, four-cylinder FM battery-distributor that has the same footprint as my mag. I might have to dig it up this winter (hopefully) and see if I can find a way to convert it to breakeress.

This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal.
