I'm new to C3 Vette Reg. and it looks like a very organized/pro. site. I've owned a '77 Vette and now have a '68 convertable the 327 is gone but it has a '69 350/350 hp. I've pulled distributors before but this one wont come out. It moves about 1" and stops. Everythig is disconnected,it seems like it hits something in the block. It's loose and wiggles and I've tried to pull as straight as possible. Any help? thanks

Welcome! Try rotating the rotor just a bit while pulling up on the dist.

 YES !!!!!! I Very carefully with a wrench helped the dist. out, being org. it just did not want to give up it's gig. Now a Mallory duel point and a Accel Super coil will take it's place with Accel 8.8 300+ race wires.... THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!
