The 69 and 71 FI distributors are pretty much alike, as long as they 
are both from MT cars, or both from ATs. I like the L distributor the 
best, but there is little difference. The Bentley manual shows all the 
advance curves.  

The M FI dist is different inside. It should work fine, but it is a little 
more complicated and I don't know why they made that particular 
version different from all the rest. This is not a common version, 
however, but it was used in 69.  

Yes, I can rebuild any of these if they need it. They often need it 
and the owners don't realize it.
