New one on me also! I did replace the points cam on the GT380B rebuild (still have the old one) and got the new part from Reiner, so he will have supplied the correct one. If I ever take on out, I'll have a good look!
Cheers,

Different ones for Kokusan and Denso, so different dwell to give different spark/coil characteristics.
Think of how stupid the average person is, then realise that half of them are more stupid than that.

Mr Paranoid here just checked his old and now-installed points cams on his GT380B. Whew - both have slots not punch marks. WTH anyway, it goes wonderfully!!
The 750....I'd be a while hunting that one. Long gone, with Dutch elec ignition instead :-)
Cheers,
Mike
