Same here. I took the cap off to install it in the Blazer. The main thing is to get it close enough to the timing of the original so you have some room to adjust the timing. If you're too far off, you may have to pull the distributor and slip it a tooth or two, because you don't get a lot of room for adjustment between the firewall and the intake manifold.
