George (if you're still here, since I haven't seen a post in a while) and Georges,

What ever became of this?  I pulled my CAS Sunday to replace the leaking o-ring (my irritating oil leak I hope), and got to thinking about these twin distributor covers.  Unfortunately, I asked Leon if he had a picture, and he did (doesn't he always).  I'll attach it here.  As you can see, it does appear that the cover will bolt up to a 13B housing, but the problem will be obvious :-( 

Is this the same as the cover you saw Georges?  Were there others covers that had two distributors?  I sure would like a second CAS...

Cheers,
Rusty

 

Georges,
The answer is YES!

 Hi! Guys
I was just snooping around my neighbors vehicle cemetery (a collection of about 150 vehicles from the early 1900's on) I found an old Mazda wagon (model 124 engine 12a) The engine has 2 distributors, does any one know whether the front cover from  a 12a will bolt up to a 13b ? I would like to have redundant igniters if I could.
