Default 460 Ford Distributor Height
I have a 460 Ford in my West Coast Cobra. The height of the distributor
from the manifold to the top of the wire boots is 8 1/2 inches. This height
does not allow me to use the cast Cobra air cleaner supplied with the kit.
I do not know who manufactured the distributor, it's billet with a blue
cap in conjunction with a MSD 6 series ignition.

I need a billet distributor that is at least 1 inch shorter to clear the air
cleaner. Does anyone know if the is a shorter distributor with a centrifugal
advance. There is a photo of the distributor in my photo section.
