This product is an NOS Part.
NOS items are OEM parts from Ford that have been sitting on shelves or in warehouses for years. These are often great examples of the orignal parts, but they may have scratches or other shelf wear.
However be aware that some NOS parts are "service replacement" parts. "Service replacement" parts are not exact replacements of the parts that were installed at the factory, but are what Ford considered as "good enough" and were used at Ford dealerships after the original supply of parts was exhausted.
We often leave NOS product listings on our website after they sell for reference purposes.
New Old Stock lower distributor bushing for most V-8 engines 1965 through 1968-69. Ford deemed this bushing as not needed during 1968. That is why all 351W distributors do not have one installed. All 289 distributors 1965-67 should have one installed, starting in 1968 some did, some did not. Many 1968-69 302-2V's and all Boss 302 distributors had them installed. Same with FE distributors all had them starting in 1965, by 1968-69, they were disappearing. Limited to stock on hand. If Ford deemed them not needed, they are probably not needed.
We measure 0.641" I.D., 0.480" O.D., and 0.380" long.
Ford part number C5AZ-12132-A.
