Lol, You seem somewhat technically inclined. What's up with the map feature? Is it supposed to tell you where you are at the time of your post?

They maybe the same part but the screw holes for the rotor are different. If you look at the plate the rotor connects to, there's 4 screw holes that are keyed to fit the rotor.
I know cause I tried to use a dizzy from my blazer to troubleshoot an engine code on my hoe. There was no way I could get the rotor pointing to #1 and have the alignment marks on the shaft be right.
Are you throwing a P1345 code?

I double checked it. It is the same rotor D465. It is use on 5.7l and 4.3l from 96-99 and at least some 5.0l and 6.0l engines as well.

I don't doubt it. I can say that my hoe (96 5.7l) dizzy had a marking for a 6 and an 8, The blazer (97 4.3l) dizzy only had a 6 marking. The 8 rotor would not fit on the 6 and have the shaft marks line up . They were off about 120 degrees.
