I have a W9 with IH mag. Wanted to change it to distributor but finding out the issues with timing advance etc on a drive that turns backwards is making it hard to find. What would the part number be for say a FAirbanks or Bosch mag be that turns for the 9? The old retired mag guy here in town has already told me that during the many years he worked on these IH mags, most of the time they threw them in a pile and replaced them with Mags from Bosch or Fairbanks. He swears even if you went to the local IH dealership, they sold Bosch in stead of IH mags.
 
Look for a distributor for a MD, 400D, or 450D. They will turn in the correct direction. They advance can be changed by changing the size of the advance hole under the weights.
