Is there such a thing as a smaller diameter HEI distributor? I want to put one in my 65 Suburban next year when I get a new engine, but I don't want to have to mangle or modify the firewall. Also, I have a Mallory Unilite that just needs a module. Anyone have an honest opinion on these? I read some reviews and they all say they are junk, the modules keep burning out etc. etc. Mine burned out because a shop took my ballast resistor off and said I didn't need it, but by the time I figured out I did, it died and the warranty was out.
Thanks
