ProComp billet distributor issues, the distributor housing would not clear the injector rails
The distributor would not seat all the way and sat up approx. ¼” due to the interference.

Looks sweet.

I ran the stock distributor forever, I have now had a MSD it it for a few years, with no issues.

Knock on wood.

I have been think of going with the Mallory since it is suppose to be made in the U.S. MSD have started outsourcing to the Chinese and have been having some issues recently.

Yeah, The procomp ones need to be clearanced for the fuel rails and it sucks......went back to a stock and I am thinking of Mallory myself. This is the difference between off shore and domestic(price to quality)!
Build looks real nice.....good luck.
