Shawn,
Yes, the model is the Unilite and you can have one of three different types.
One is the dual point distributor, the other two are electronic. One is
optical which they said was simpler and less likely to malfunction and the
other is magnetic. The only modification is to have the tach. converted to
electronic which I have been told is better than our mechanical ones. I
will let the list know what I find out. I am going to a friends shop next
week and he may have a dist. I can use to send to Mallory. If not, I will
take someone up on the offer to use theirs.
Kyle.

Kyle,
It sounds as if you have a volunteer for the distributor. But I was
wondering if they are going to make you a version of their "Unilite"
distributor. If so, I am also interested in purchasing one. My
machinist, who also builds race motors, just gave me a name and number
at Mallory this evening. I wait and see what you turn up though. Thanks
for doing the leg work.
