Hey all - I'm new to the Chrysler. Have owned/messed with a couple other brands over many past years, and did rebuild one 360 Chrysler MANY years ago. I bought this car (1959 Vauxhall Victor) back about the first of this year (2024). Been updating most all of the hardware, and making a few performance changes ever since. It's a 493 in, iron head (for now), 727 manual trans., 8-3/4" axle, wrapped up in 2100lbs, 96" wheel base, full round tube framed, street legal car. **One thing has me puzzled...other than the obvious length difference...why...did MSD (others) build the "long" distributor over the OEM shorter bodied distributor ? Mike
