Default Coil help-testing & correct date

I have a Delco-Remy Coil.

On the side it has a series of numbers/letters.

They are as follows:

270
B-R

What year vehicle and motor is correct for this coil?

How do you test a coil to make sure it is good?

Any help on this would be great!

Dave

That is the last 3 digits of the part number I believe. Put it on Ebay and advertise it as a '69 Z/28 coil and you will get a pretty penny for it. Bazillions of them out there.

That is not a date code.

Default Date code....LOL



I knew it was not a date code but was actally trying to get some feedback for the lettering/numbers. Someone sent me a web-site and it shows the coil was used for '68 thru '74 mostly SB 327 and 350 motors.

Now for the testing part.....HOW???
