mallory dual point distributor
i just got my new mallory dual point mechanical advance distributor. the cap is different than the cap on my old distributor. it doesn't have posts on the top to put spark plug wires on. its like the wires need posts to plug into the cap of ths distributor. does anyone have this distributor or one like it? can any of you tell me what kind of wires i need to order to get it to work? thanks

The wires you need have a terminal that looks similar to the type that snaps onto the spark plugs, but they're larger. They actually snap into the holes of the cap (if that makes sense).
They stick out of the boot further, slide into the terminals on the cap, and snap into place.
I included a pic if it helps. Granted it's not to scale, but should give you some idea.
