Question What dizzy for keeping things neat?

A buddy of mine said he knew of distributors that re-position the posts in such a way that the wires come off without crossing. I'm going to have to replace the distributor on my '78 350 and figured I might as well get one that will help keep things neat.

Anyone know where I could find something like that?

It's not the whole distributor, just the Cap. made by Accel, called the "corrected cap"

It's the cap, and I've heard them called "crossfire" caps. Should run you about $50, Summit sells them.

My mom always had the best advice. It was just a tad late. After a fall that involved blood, she'd say....."Careful!"
