Received my E-Bock intake-PLEASE help. . .

This message is for ANYONE that has an Edelbrock X F-66 cross-ram:

I just received mine today, and as I had read about the distributor situation on the MT, and other's comments about the e-bock, I got my DuCoil distributor (dual points, condensors, and coils) out to see if it would fit. This distributor is a bit larger in diameter than a FoMoCo points dist., but smaller than a Duraspark (which I have read wont fit). I did a mock up of the intake & distributor on the bench, and it is going to be VERY CLOSE! All of my FE blocks are in storage 10 hours away, so I can't tell for sure. . .

So, if one of you will PLEASE do me a favor, I need to know 2 or 3 measurements:
1) What is the diameter of your distributor at its widest point (probably the cap)?
2) What is the distance from the distributor to the intake runner at the closest point?
3) What is the height of this closest point as measured from the horizontal surface where the distributor goes through the intake?

PLEASE, be as accurate as you can be, as these three measurements will let me figure out if my distributor will work or not.

I really think these two would make a KILLER retro set-up for my Galaxie, but if it wont fit, it wont fit. I am more partial to the DuCoil than I am the intake, so if it ends up not fitting, the intake will be for sale or trade for another "exotic" intake. . .

Thanks,
Nathan
