Anybody got pics of their 440 with an MSD distributor?  I want to compare the height of the MSD with the MP electronic distributor is anyone has that info too.  Thanks.

Three of the pics on that page show the MSD distributor pretty clearly; last three, starting about halfway down.

Thanks.  How much taller is that MSD than the stock distributor?

I don't have the stock one anymore, so I can't actually check, but my memory's telling me it really wasn't much different...  But I'm a long way from any clearance issues, so I didn't actually pay *that* much attention... sorry

Here is a 440 block with a MSD distributor installed.

There are several models. My Charger came with the so-called MSD "ready to run" distributor that is fatter than the stock ones. My 440 now has INDY EZ heads and the MSD distributor that fit with stock heads no longer fitted the INDY heads, therefore I switched to electronic ignition with a MP stock distributor - barely clears but it works. I dont have the model number handy at work on the MSD dist that did not fit. But if you want it for reference I'll get it tomorrow. The higher MSD's dist will fit as shown above. My Charger came with a 17" california double snorkel air cleaner, so I couldnt go with the higher MSD distributor. Good luck
