Default 1969 big block distributor

Hey guys, just bought a 69 vert 427 that now has a 454 installed. I have everything from the 427 except the block and internals. The 454 runs ok for now but has no tach drive on it. I believe the 454 is from 75 or so. I have a mallory distributor that came with the car that is for a 427 that has a tach drive on it. Will that work on the 454 or am I out of luck? Any suggestions?!!!

427 and 454 parts are interchangeable. They are both big blocks so most parts will interchange. So yes your Mallory will work on the 454.
