As an explanation, I am using the stock 1969 351W distributor which has been converted to pointless with a Pertronix conversion kit. I was using a HEI conversion cap kit on the distributor with matching wires. Since buying a turkey pan to surround the carb, the pan interferes with the distributor cap so I need to go back to the standard sized cap. I was hoping that if any company made a cap with HEI nipples for the points type distributor I wouldn't have to swap in a new set of wires, just swap the rotor and cap. I am also planning to swap to a dual quad Holley setup sometime over the winter which would also probably benefit from increased distributor clearance.
