I think I have some adapters I made to change a short lug to a long lug. [Reply]  [No Email]

You got flat ears that go in the slot on the governor and there either long or short. [Reply]  [No Email]

I have a WICO XB Distributor and I am thinking about going to a Mag or Delco distributor. So, my question then is.... which Mag do I get... Short or long? [Reply]  [No Email]

I'm going to measure the distance tomorrow but from all said.... it must be a short lug Mag that I would use. I'm wondering what that Delco distributor looks like now? [Reply]  [No Email]

I found this place and have sent them a couple of questions. Since the WICO XB and the Delco have differnt bases (the WICO has bolted top and bottom connections the Delco is round with no bolted connections????? There has to be something to clamp the Delco to the Deere govenor. Bill [Reply]  [No Email]

It is round so you can turn it to adjust it. There are two small clamps that are mounted on the governor in the same two points that hold the mag or XB. The Parts book for the "50" tractor shows the Delco distributor. It was original equipment from Deere. If you buy one, be sure to get the clamps. The Delco was also available from Deere as a replacement for the XB. Kurt [Reply]  [No Email]

So, if I go the Delco way I need a 6 volt coil to go with the distributor and a way to mount both and I should be good to go. [Reply]  [No Email]
