    Hopefully my old eyes are seeing it wrong.

    I hope so too. I think I should be ok. I am going to run a Unilite distributor, and they are pretty compact. I took the one my Son is going to use in his 455 out of the box and measured it. It is right under 5 inches in diameter. So that would be a radius of 2.5 plus some clearance room. I have about 4 inches from the center of the distributor hole to the firewall, so I SHOULD be ok, but I have had the same thoughts you did. I probably should go ahead and order my distributor and make sure before I mount the body. I can still slide it back if needed.

    Good thought, and thanks for the nice words from everybody.
