B/RB vacuum advance source?

Just in case anyone was wondering, I almost got the electronic
conversion together and then went to look at a car for sale:

http://home.comcast.net/~njnagel/64vert.html

of course, this car has an (incorrect but more desirable, and easily
converted with Pertronix or similar) Delco "window" distributor so it
looks like the conversion won't be used, as I can't keep my '62 and the
convertible at the same time.

Oh well, such is life. I suppose I ought to finish it anyway just to
prove that I can do it. Thanks for the help, anyways. I did eventually
find a parts store that hooked me up with a vacuum unit that fit.

The guy probably wasn't there when the product was made.
They don't care, don't care enough to ask someone who has been
there longer (might be huge turnover in a shoddy business), and
are just hoping that you will go away and let them get back to
waiting for break (brake for the illiterates)/lunch/go home.

Slant six, I believe. I think the 225 had a taller deck, hence RG.

G is the 170 cubic inch slant-6.
RG is the 198 and 225 cubic inch slant-6.
