It's as you say, a good idea to check the shaft and bushings. If the shaft is wobbly in the bushings it affects the point opening and closing ( dwell). They used that distributor up until 1962 and it was bullet proof. The one GM came out with in 1963 for the "new improved" 230 cubic inch engine was garbage. They always needed shafts and bushings.
Cheers,
Barry
