HEI stands for High Energy Ignition. It was a breakerless distributor made by Delco and used on GM engines in the 1970s. The coil is contained in the cap. The head of the distributor is big and this size limits it replacing a regular points type distributor.


Not exactly. GM made some smaller HEI distributors the same size as the early Delco caps and that's why I said mine will look original externally. Either Clipper/Autolite or Packard/Delco would be appreciated, as I'm trying to do kits for both.
