which distributor

I was wondering what kind of distributor i should run a vacuum or mechanical advance? It is a moderately built 460 and i plan on running all new mallory ignition and was wonder which on to get. I drive the truck daily (But short distances) and i also plan to pull it at some tractor pulls as well. thanks for the info

If your worried at all about fuel mileage, get the vacuum advance distributor. If not, then the mech only dist will work fine. You don't have any vacuum anyway if you are wide open pulling down the track.
