I am also going to upgrade to electronic ignition, so I bought a HEI distributor. BUT the stock distributor drive gear has an unusual (to me) method of attachment to the distributor shaft. So, how do you adapt the two? I'm still working on that one. I'm trying to find out if someone can make me one that will attach with a roll pin.
I also have two distributors (with the window for adjusting the points) with that type of gear. It is suppose to fit the 351 & 478 GMC V6. If you can find an distributor (without the window) on for a 305 on ebay you won't have to make one. Or you can buy a clevis pin cut to length (and reusing the square pieces) and stake it in place.
