Oooh...that does look a little fat copared to what I thought. Currently the Mallory I am using is about 3.7 inches across the distributor bowl and I have at most, about 1/2" front ( overflow tank) and rear (front carb) for clearance.

I wanted to go with the Pertronix as I have a Pertronix unit in my Mallory and it was the best upgrade I did so far. Very reliable and smoother accelration (none of those little misfires that are hard to hear but let you know it's not smooth).

I'm still not sure it will fit my engine, but Thank-you for your response.
