Anyone building a B block and haven't bought a  B distributor yet? If you have a RB distributor you can use this adapter and save some money.
I made one for myself tonight and had enough material for one more. You will need to get anothor o'ring off a distributor and lengthen the distributor clamp. Not a biggie!
I've been blessed enough from other members on here with parts so this is free, just  be sure your going to use it is all I ask. Don't just take it and let it sit in your tool box forever or flog it on E-Bay just because it's free.
I used this drawing I got off Moparts so I hope it's right?

 :cheers:  Thanks CC.com! I love the pay it forward theme on this site! :2thumbs:

Now if you could only make an adapter for using a Ford 302 with module distributor to run in a Mopar 440, I'd be a happy camper.

Ha! I would take it, but already bought one a few years ago. Let's hope it finds a good home! Cool "pay it forward" move Brad! Class act!

Hey Brad, thank you so much for that buddy :2thumbs: Wouldn't it be nice if the console did fit in the same box, are you going to Carlisle Brad ? I can ask Jim if he does not mind to grab the console from you there if you do not mind taking it alone with you ?

No problem, yep I plan on going to Carlisle this summer, unless something drastic happens. I have my Motel room booked already. No problem bringing your console down to Jim!

I used to mod these in australia to go into mopar dizzys there, I will do some checking to see what the module looks like here in the states since the aussie ones were locally made that i used. So Im taking it there might be a market here too huh?
