Single and you will need to change the rotor arm as it was a mechanical limiter back then.

Think it was just the lower model v6 had no limiter, if you look at yours it has a spring assembly on it. The one you want is just plain, I will have a look in my spares I may have one.

I could only find one , as you see it's a mechanical limited one but I had removed the weighted part as like you I fitted an aftermarket soft cut adjustable one.
