You can run a any series distributor on any series car and it will work 
fine.  The problem is in trying to get an early series distributor with 
the block for the tachometer drive to work on a series V engine.  The 
block with the tachometer drive is too long, so the dog driver on the 
distributor is 3/8" short of the drive shaft.  I have considered milling 
down the early series tachometer block or making a 3/8" spacer from 
another driver dog.  If anyone has any experience in doing this 
adaptation, I would love to hear from them.  Rick, at Sunbeam 
Specialties, thinks he heard of a guy down in the central valley of 
California that has accomplished this feat.
