I made an adaptor that was sandwitched between the oil pump and distributor.
It is approxamtely 5/16" difference between the mach. and elec. distribs.
The piece was round and had a tang that went into the oil pump and the bottom
was made to have drive dogs that matched the base of the distributr and
conversely the top was notched to mimic the oil pump. It is two peices so the
notches and tabs could be made and the round tang is then welded into place.
