Bought to use on my new 427 stroker (351w based) but turns out it could not be set up so my Atomic EFI computer could control it.  Cap is painted black.  Has never been run, has steel gear for roller cam.  Wish I could use it because it sure looks better than the MSD dizzy I wound up with.
$189 plus shipping.  I paid $259 at Summit for it. Email steve@mustangsteve.com if interested.

Re: BRAND NEW Mallory billet distributor

Hey Steve, can I get the measurement from the base that mounts on the intake to the top ring of aluminum that the cap sits on please?  I'm limited on the height I can use. Thanks, Bob.

From the surface that would contact the block to the top of the aluminum part is 5".  To block to tip of coil terminal is 8".

Thanks Steve, but that's too high to fit under my Monte Carlo bar.
