90/91 Vette distributor

[TK]

Not that this will help, but the integrated coil (large HEI) and the
external coil (small HEI) was used randomly on the 81-84 2.8L HO V6's from
GM.
I understood that the external coil version was better, but I have no data
to support that. I've used both. I can't say one is better than the other.
On TPI's, maybe the difference is noticeable.

Are you talking about the internal/external coil HEI's?

-> Thanks, I'm getting the response that it's possible that the
-> 'Vette came with either/both, for these years.

That, or possibly there was a recall and GM considered the distributors
to be interchangeable.  Or some previous owner may have replaced it.


-> For a while, I was thinking that a large cap distrib could
-> run more timing... Hhmmm, maybe not?

It'd give you slightly more air gap between terminals.
