You should be able to buy a rebuilt 215 dizzy from any of the larger auto parts companies, special order, 2-5 days. Try NAPA, Auto Zone, Pep Boys, etc. D & D lists a rebuilt dizzy, including points,

I don't have a drawing, but I have a 1995 4.2L Rover bolted to a 1962 Buick bellhousing. Everything lines up including the locating dowels. Will that solve your problem? Jim Stuart

Additional thoughts- are you sure the V-6 cover is shorter than the 215 when the 215 has a Buick 300 water pump installed? Also, if you get a METRIC oil pump base for a V-6 Buick, it will bolt up to

The 1982/92 Camero T-5 is a direct bolt up to a 215 4-speed bellhousing. Use a 10.5" clutch for a Chevy S-10 pickup w/ T-5 & a McCleod hydraulic throw out bearing for a no hassle set up. This is what
