Is anyone out there using using a small cap HEI or electronic distributor? My K1500 has an MSD streetfire distributor that works OK except that the vacumn advance is not working. I want to switch to a small cap as the Streetfire (same size as GM HEI) sits about an eighth of an inch from the firewall. This clearance issue may only occur on the K trucks. Any small cap reccomendations?
