    Has anyone a long-stemmed clockwise DuraSpark distributor as was used in V8 Jeeps of the '80s?

    I really need some measurements from one. Here (I hope) are the numbers I seek:

    Hi Flathat-
    I have one here that I have modified to use in a flathead motor. It's a spare one I made and matches the one I've been running in my motor for several years now.
    Dimension A is 8 inches with the thrust washer included.
    Dimension B is 6 1/2 inches with the thrust washer included.
    I can only give you an estimate on dimension C because I turned off a portion of the
    fins to put on a clamping plate for holding the distributor in position in the motor. That number is 5 inches.
    If it would be helpful, send me an email address and I can send you a picture of my dizzy.

    Thanks, Bill. That's exactly what I plan to do. Your numbers are a huge help. Look for my e-mail.

    Cheers!
