Troy,
Does it have to be a "Vortec" distributor ? As far as I know, any small block distributor will work.

The vortec distributor is actually made of plastic! Couldnt beleive it.. Instead of the normal ignition pickup it has a cam sensor. It also uses a flat style distributor cap. I dont think a normal distributor would work because of the difference between the cam sensor and ignition pickup signals.
