Why don't you do what I did and buy the old red one and then spend half the day drilling, taping, and painting it.  Seriously, if you just pay attention when you're switching the wires over it is virtually impossible to screw up a distributor cap change. Here's a YouTube video as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Vghg8c8Qfk |

Nah, that's not my style.
One of these days I'll tell you a sad story about a young kid who would always lay down too much paint, too thick, and used too much glue, on his model cars, that his model cars always had permanent fingerprints embedded in them. He never won a model car contest and, to this day, still shows the emotional scars. |

Update on the Beautiful Black Cap
Well I finally got around today to installing that beautiful black cap I fashioned (see first post in this thread). It makes all the difference in the world.  I was pleased to see that the interior of the distributor was the same as it was after I cleaned it up (see http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/fe-t...on-t-like.html ). Apparently the holes they say to drill in the side, along with the judicious use of dielectric tune-up grease, does the trick to keep the corrosion away.
