distributor clearance?
 

Help. I;m about ready to start my conversion but I have a problem. Has anyone installed a small block Chevy with rear mount distributor? Is there enough room ? Do I need to recess part of the firewall to clear the dist.? Is there room behind the firewall? My motor is a ramjet 350 that I didn't use in a 32 ford project. Oh yeah my Miata is a 1991 NA.

This guy, proguru on the Miata.net engine swap forum, has had this one for several years. In addition to this cardomain site, you might search for his threads on the other forum.

Isn't the ramjet kind of high?
