Re: Distributor ????
I believe any 75 or later GM engine should have HEI. A 250 distributor should work if you can't find a 292. Also, it doesn't have to be from a truck, so look at 75-up cars too.

Re: Distributor ????
just make sure you ditch the primary wire from the coil of the points or whatever you call that wire.. i thought u just disconnect and add that to new dist. but little did i no it didnt have enough juice. so it kep giving constant power to my dist. in result would always drain my battery over night. so u got to run a new wire from the fuse box..
