Hi all,
I'm modernizing my '55 292 and I have a 4 barrel intake, and modern carb lined up but I need to upgrade my distributor.  I don't want to buy a racing one or anything, just something that will run right.  Original items from 57's and up tend to be quite pricy.  I found one on Cardone but I'm not sure which would work and how to pick the right part.  Anyone have some corporate knowledge they could lay on me in regards to this?
