The Type I and Type IV distributors are interchangable correct??

Yes, they will fit. Question is how the advance curve is setup.

The Mallory barely clears the T4 tin - I don't know how well that monster would clear though.

Be interesting to see. Nice idea with the GM cap - easy to find new parts.

DUI...not a good name. Makes on think they're assembled by people who are stoned out of their gourds.

Good point Tom!

That means it won't clear a T1 stock pump. You might need to do some major

MSD has a distributor that might be an option. Been running them on my 2.0 liters for 10 years without a single problem and they cured all the glitchs I had with the 2 different carbs setups I've had.
