There are no factory small cap HEI distributors that aren't computer controlled.

I run a skipwhite performance distro and it works great. You can't beat the price. He sells them on ebay and or his internet site.

I wasn't aware Skip White had the small caps units too. I have one of their large cap units to put in mine. Good looking piece.
