So long as a coil-in-cap, 4-pin HEI distributor fits between air cleaner ASM and firewall; a correctly-curved DUI dist will bring joy. It cannot fit within OE points dist chrome shield, But shielding for '75 -'77 can be adapted.

* suggest do verify new dist Gear is a metallurgical match to current 383 camshaft's material.
