tack drive distributor
I currently installing a crate engine in my Vette. It has a distributor without a tack drive. It is a SBC 350. Can I use the tack drive distributor from the old engine. (327)? Or how do I hook up the distributor on the new engine to the tack in the Vette?
Thanks

If you are going to re-use the original, best to send it out for a re-build to insure the advance works correctly. A good re-builder should be able to set it up close to what you need. Or purchase a new distributor from Summit or Jegs, there are a few that have a mechanical tach drive.
