Good call. Standerd distributor bolts in no problem, but you need a melonized distributer gear from GM. No idea why bronze is still out there, it was never oem. It has the pad for mechanical pumps but the pushrod hole to work the pump is not drilled and the cam has no lobe to operate the pushrod. A drill and cam swap would make it work if your really into mechanical pumps for some reason.
