    I'm looking for a new or NOS stator and detent switch for a 67 Riviera w/ st400. I think the part number is 1375966. This is the switch that connects to the carb linkage. (see picture) Does anyone know where I might buy a new one or get the original switch in working order?

    That's an awful purty motor ya got there! :TU:

    These switches come up on Ebay every so often. About a year ago it seems there was an NOS in original box every 2 weeks or so. I haven't seen one recently though.

    The internals seem pretty basic, see the pics in THIS THREAD . It's probably worth taking it apart and cleaning it up inside. It looks like dirty/corroded contacts is all that can go wrong with them. Good luck and let us know how you make out.

    Did you use satin or gloss black paint on the fan, etc.?
