I agree with the suggestions for using Pertronix. I used their billit distributor in my 383, I would not do that again, it is larger in diameter however I did get it to fit. I should have converted a standard distributor. It has the Ignitor III internals that I do like and highly recommend. It will fire any coil down to 0.32 ohm, has an internal rev limiter and does not use a ballast resistor or separate ignition box. If you are interested call them and ask about the following parts to see if they fit your distributor: 71381A Ignitor III module 44011 Coil, black 0.32 ohm I did have a problem with mine and the warranty replacement was immediate. This may not be an option for you but I left my ballast resistor on the firewall and just bypassed it with a jumper. I also carry a stock coil and point type distributor in the trunk. I like electronics but don't trust them. I have a 4-speed and really like having the rev limiter and electronic ignition performance without having a separate ignition box. My 63 did not come with electronic ignition and I don't want to see it under the hood. Dennis C.
