Default NAPA ECH RR 1670 rotor

I know the RR 1670 rotor is the heavy duty, suggested by Lars, but does anyone know if it is the extended tip type.

Tks. DRC

In 73 GM put a distributor rotor with a shorter tip, creating a larger gap to the distributor cap posts. Somehow it helped with emissions. Corvette suppliers now carry an extended tip rotor like the pre-emission cars. It is made by a company called K&B Corvettes.

So, I was asking if the Echlin heavy duty rotor was an extended tip type.
