We're on the same page, MrTube. The dimensions of your new cap may be fine, but just think how your engine would sound (or not sound at all) if you hadn't cleaned off that "flash."

No disrepect to our many fine parts houses (thank you all), but the distributor body on the shelf today may differ a bit from the thousands of distributor caps on the line at River Rouge, '27 - '31.

Just saying, "before you bolt it on, check it out."
