AutoLite GGW 6001E was specific to the 22nd series 6-cylinder taxicab and was a 45 amp unit. The only 23rd series to have AutoLite generators (GGW 6001 X, 40 amp) were the Custom 8s and the Super Deluxe Victoria (2332) with the C, D, and F versions. Your 2301 should have originally had a Delco 1102717. Some may say that factory shortages might have resulted in some interchanges at the factory and one can't rule that out, though I think it's unlikely if it's not mentioned in the service bulletins. Ditto for the distributor, your 2301 should have a Delco distributor and the fact that it doesn't shows some mongrelization took place at some point. That said, no reason why the vehicle can't perform fine with the interchanges though you should compare the distributor advance curves to see how closely they match.
