i'm sure ken meant to say the *cam* tuens opposite b/c of the gear vs.
chain.  the *dist* turns the same way, hence the need for different
drive gears.

any of the '63-up 194/230/250/292 up to when they started going
electronic, '74 iirc.

i may add i also did an hei swap, on my 199, and it only took my old
delco points dist gear and chevy wires to drop in.  it was a j/y dist
from a 250 and i put near 50k on it before i retired the car.
