Standard Ignition Distributor Rotor P/N:DR-308
$11.99

Send high-voltage spark from the coil to each cylinder in firing order with the Standard Ignition DR-308 Distributor Rotor. It is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications, including the 1953-1962 Chevrolet Bel Air, 1953-1955 Chevrolet Corvette, 1954-1959 GMC 100, 1957-1958 International A100 Truck, 1958-1962 American Motors American and 1959-1962 Chevrolet Impala, among 153 applications. See the Buyer's Guide tab for the full list and engine details.

The rotor turns with the distributor shaft. It carries current from the center of the distributor cap to each outer terminal in sequence, which feeds the spark plug wires. Standard Ignition makes original equipment ignition products worldwide and maintains quality control throughout manufacturing, from componentry to the finished product.

  • Dielectric alkyd: High-grade dielectric strength alkyd resists dirt sticking. This decreases carbon tracking for extended service life.
  • Solid brass segments: Chosen for better conductivity and higher voltage spark to the plugs.
  • Shaft retention: Shaft retention clips are used where the application requires them, for proper fit and performance.
  • Engineering background: Built on decades of Standard Ignition research and development in distributor caps and rotors.

Signs this part may need replacing include misfires, hard starting, rough running or a no-start. A burned or worn tip, cracks, or carbon tracking on the rotor are also signs. Diagnose the ignition system before replacing parts, since other components can cause the same symptoms.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a distributor rotor do?

It turns with the distributor shaft and passes high-voltage current from the center of the distributor cap to each outer terminal in sequence, sending spark on to the spark plug wires.

What are signs the distributor rotor may need replacing?

Signs include misfires, hard starting, rough running or a no-start, plus a burned or worn tip, cracks, or carbon tracking. Diagnose the ignition system first, since other parts can cause the same symptoms.

What materials does the DR-308 use?

It uses high-grade dielectric strength alkyd, which resists dirt sticking to help decrease carbon tracking, plus solid brass segments for better conductivity.

Which vehicles does the DR-308 fit?

Applications include the 1953-1962 Chevrolet Bel Air, 1954-1959 GMC 100 and 1958-1962 American Motors American. See the Buyer's Guide tab for all 153 applications and engine details.

What part numbers does the DR-308 interchange with?

It cross-references to numbers including 3118583, J3118583, D132, DR945, RR161 and RR161SB. The complete list appears on the Interchange line in the description.
