Hi Team. I have something funny going on here. I'm not sure if this is the correct rotor button for my car?

I am sort of feeling the one installed could be for a 280se?
My car is a 76 280s

Here I go asking for help again. I hope I can repay with you guys when I go to do the body work. I am a panel beater and spray painted with almost 30 years experience.
Cheers Justin.
hi
the old one is the rev limit version, the new one is not but should work fine, more knowledgeable peeps will follow with better info
all the best
Thanks John.
I am having trouble understanding how a rotor button can be a Rev limiter. But as a mechanic I make a great automotive painter. ;D
Is the ignition timing different between them?
hi justin my mechanical knowledge is basic, and what i do know i learned on here, but thats what it is a rev limiter rotor.
designed to protect engines from over revving maybe in a manual car if you missed a gear etc
subject to correction
all the best
