Re: dual point distributer
The 891 distributor was used in Corvettes from 1957 through 1961.
The 908 was the first FI tach drive distributor used in 1957.
I believe the 985 dist. used in 1962 was the first used on carbureted cars. -

Bruce and John------
Yes, the first use of a tach drive distributor for a carbureted Corvette was 1962. Thereafter, tach drive distributors were used in all Corvettes through the 1974 model year. After 1974, no tach drive distributor was ever used again in a Corvette.
As far as dual point distributors go, the first use of a dual point was 1956. The last use of a dual point in a Corvette according to GM was 1963, but I don't know if any confirmed use of a dual point in 1963 has ever been determined.In Appreciation of John HinckleyComment
