About 5 years ago or better, I used to make the adapters. I started out with the one on the right but as said it would not fit the MSD dist., so I made some changes and came up with the one on the left.
I sold the adapter and hold down for $55 including shipping but it was a bust and couldn't sell enough to justify doing it anymore.
do you have any left

ANYONE here try just cutting and then fitting the RB shaft to fit a B engine ?
A Bud of mine in the Orlando area did just this. IIRC .. it took him about an hour with a hack-saw.
I put mine in the bridgeport and shortened the shaft. 15 minutes tops. The shaft can also be ordered from msd for a reasonable price.

Some of the guys that bought my adapters were using them to clear the vc's. Just so ya all know, I am a couple years from retirement and my plans are in the near future to buy a Bridgeport, lathe and all the other goodies to start making custom parts. It will be a hobby, not a business. Quote:
FYI...... you can order a "B" shaft from MSD for $35.00 and just change that. Did that on the MSD distributor for the Yellow Submarine when we changed the motor over to a low deck. Easy to do and if you ever need to go back the other way, just swap the other shaft back in!

Since Mopar Performance has discontinued the distributor Adapter does anyone else make it.
I have a brand new 440 Distributor but I have had a couple years and MSD won't exchange it for me.
