I like the cut + weld leg option, but not everyone has access to a TIG and I'm not sure how the sensors inside would like the extreme heat.

Heres a Idea for you take a old LS cam cap
Stuff the nagger in the chop saw
Bolt too A20 head Negrow STYLZ
Then all you have too do is chop/grind/weld whatever ------- dizzy you want to fit

Wow. I LOL'd at the finger to the cam cap.
What's the smallest OBD1 distributor I could find? I "test fit" the distributor and it doesn't fit any way I turn it without grinding part of the thermostat housing neck and use a smaller bolt.

You already have this figured out, Steve even made you a nice writeup for it, just go do it already.
