Features
- Low profile for Delco-Remy distributors
- For 1110xxx series distributors
- Suitable for 6V and 12V systems
- Fitted to late WC production
- With brass contacts
★ Note: this low Delco cap only fits with the corresponding low rotor. A tall Auto-Lite rotor will not fit here – this leads to mechanical contact or poor spark transmission.
⚠ Important
- Distributor cap and rotor must match
- Delco cap (low) only with low rotor
- Tall Auto-Lite rotor does not fit this low Delco cap
- Incorrect combination causes mechanical contact or poor spark transmission
- Check your distributor series (1110xxx) before purchase
Application
Specifically for later Dodge WC vehicles (late wartime production and post-war) fitted with a Delco-Remy distributor from the 1110xxx series. These distributor caps replaced the earlier Auto-Lite versions during later production.
Compatibility
Critical compatibility point: this Delco cap (late model, low version) must always be combined with a low rotor. A tall rotor – as used on early Auto-Lite distributors – touches the inside of this cap and causes malfunction. Cap and rotor must match: low cap with low rotor, tall cap with tall rotor. Not interchangeable between Auto-Lite and Delco-Remy systems without modifying both components.
Historical context
The Delco-Remy distributor was introduced during late wartime production on Dodge WC vehicles. This system gradually replaced the earlier Auto-Lite equipment and is commonly found in post-war restorations.
