You can use a pre-HEI points style GM cap on the distributor also.

The MSD cap is based off of the GM point distributor cap. A regular Point distributor cap from a GM point distributor will have the other spark plug ends on it.

everything is going to the spark plug type ends for the distributor caps... even the newer aftermarket coils are the same connectors. i'm using a set of taylor wires (i have the same dizzy just a low deck version on my 400)
