My parts guy sold me a 1.9 WBX hall. This is all they had access to and they said I'd have to adapt it to the 2.1 distributor. I don't recall the details as to why I didn't pursue it further but..... FWIW, if you need to knock out the pin at distributor base, I found this worked fine.

Drilled a hole slightly bigger than the pin. Supporting body with piece of wood, pounded out pin. Neil.
