I have some of these. I may have a used one, but I know I have at 
least one NOS one on the shelf. Yes, they are much more 
expensive than the single vac advance cans, but I can sell you one 
for much less than half the price quoted above. You should also 
make sure that your mechanical advance is working well. If it's not, 
I can install the replacement 883 vac can in the process of a dist 
rebuild to fix the mech advance.

BTW, I think I have genuine Bosch NOS vac advance cans for 
almost all of the type 3 distributors used in the US, except for the 
straight vac advance types.
