I've picked up the Cardone 31400. It indeed has the 15 degree cam
inside.
 
Interestingly, the number on the side is 41533, with what looks like a
date code of 73. I suppose this was what the core originally was...

Cardone 31402....combo vac/mech replacement dizzy as well. Good prices! 
On the 31400 (mech. advance, only)..... 
If it's the 40819 curve, it should have a 
"15" (degrees of distributor advance available = 30 degrees of advance
available 
at the crankshaft) stamped somewhere easily visible on the advance
weights within, 
under the top plate. 
However.... 
If there is a "10" stamped within, it's possibly the 41372 (or facsimile
thereof) advance curve Peter C. of Worldwide 
talked about some time ago. In this case, 
a "static" setting of 10 degrees BTDC will 
do the trick for a max of 30 degrees of advance at the crank. 
Either will work just fine in a basically stock 
or mildly tuned 1275.
