Which Distributor should I buy for my 429 with AC. Doesn't leave much room for an HEI type. Planning on buying a new distributor to dress up the engine...Help. Grandpops4

Anything wrong with running a Duraspark distributor? They are very reliable and since they have a magnetic pickup it can be used with other ignition modules/control boxes(Crane HI-6, MSD and etc).
