New Dizzy.

Hey guys,

I have a new hei distributor (appears to be MSD)which I would like to install on my 1969 rebuild 460. The cam gear is on a short shaft separate from distributor itself. They fit together but cannot figure out how to keep the two parts together. No hole to insert a roll pin. Any info would be appreciated with thanks.

We have see the copy cats' HEI. Having them "snap" together is not a method that we use or advise.

If you decide to get a new distributor, consider our custom curved Duraspark Distributor built with our new Full Length Oil Impregnated Bronze Bushing. The full length bushing improves timing stability and spark scatter. If stock appearance is not an issue, take a look at our one piece D.U.I. Distributor. Whether you choose the Duraspark or the D.U.I., we curve each on a distributor machine based on your engine combination. Please see them at:

Also, there is now an excellent installation article on the D.U.I. Distributor on the Ford-Trucks.com site at:
