Someone put the wrong distributor in this 273...but it works!

I've seen a 383 distributor in a 318.....and it actually ran fairly well. Yes, they are a little too long and they turn the opposite direction, but the sumbitch ran.
No way that would have worked. The short B-engine shaft won't even reach the drive gear. Most likely an RB distributor. Must have run like crap though with the advance acting as a retard.
