The RB dist is longer and will not work in a B block. All other components for ign. will work, you just need to get an RB dist.

Doesn't someone make some sort of an adaptor that extends the b block dist to rb length? seems it was a machined sleeve to allow you to use it.

I think the adapter is for using the RB dist. in a B block. The RB is longer so it's like a spacer.
64Fury, I have a dist. for RB if you need one, let me know.

Yup, the spacer lets the RB dist work in the B engine. Mopar Performance had them and so did many other parts suppliers like Mancini but I have no idea if they still offer them. I may have an extra laying around still...made about a dozen of them over the years....
