True HEI distributor conversion thoughts

I am not sure. I would hate to tell you yes and it does not. You can run the other style that has the external coil. It is much smaller. I have one for the RobKat motor, because with the serpentine belt setup, there is a minimum of room in the front.

Though technically the other style is not an "HEI". There is only one true style and that is the GM style. Although people will argue that point. The HUGE advantage to running the big cap HEI is that you can find parts at WalMart. Everybody has them. So if you burn up a module on a Sunday takin a nice drive, you can find parts.
