Default Distributor rebuild service?

Okay guys, I am trying to get my 66 running and have replaced and rebuilt everything but the
Distributor (minus pulling the motor apart) I was thinking of letting a local machine shop rebuild
it as a test before I give him my motor. Or I could send it to corvette central for their rebuild
service. Any recommendations? Thanks, Dust

Try Bill Clupper in Ohio. He is a former NCRS President and a very knowledgable with Delco distributors. I had him blueprint a distributor to my engines specs and with parts and shipping was less than $100. I only needed an autocam, weights and springs. slowmobile@aol.com
