I have a 460 in mine, and another thing you may need to consider is clearance to the distributor.

When I look through the hood scoop the top of the distributor is very close to the hood line. It's a MSD with vacuum advance. My MSD without the vacuum advance is considerably shorter. I would guess by at least an inch.
