Default Distributor Cap

Hello all.

I have a MSD Pro-Billet distributor with a red cap that was painted black by the engine builder for period correct purposes.

Any ideas how to replace it with a true black cap? The current cap has the "male" contact points on it, and the wires carry the "female" ends.

A friend suggested a GM part (Pertronix) and when I went to hook it up, I realized this new cap had "female" contact towers, which will not work with my wires.

I could replace my wires with ones with the "male" points on them, and use this GM part, but this sounds more expensive/complicated.

Thanks for your input

Hector
