Distributor Parts needed

I am in the process of rebuilding the distributor for this engine. The point cam is worn beyond acceptable limits.
Picked up a couple of distributors at a swap meet, hoping to get useful parts, they are just as bad.
Is there a supplier for the point cam for this distributor? Web search has been unsuccessful so far.

Thanks

You could also convert the dist to pointless using a Peretronix kit. The magnet in the kit fits right over your worn breaker cam no problem.
 
Try Bubba's Ignition - he repairs distributors and may have the part. He posts in the Early V8 Forum.
 
Will let you know. Customer is considering the electronic changeover.
Thanks for the info everyone.
