chevy 383 stroker ina 84 extra cab 4x4

ok so i finnally completed my 383 stroker build and it runs and drive, its got a 750 edelbrok 4bbl carb, headers, the whole works. but the one quetion i have is the electronic distriubiter wont fit back there and im stuck to using the older(smaller) points distrubiter. casue i dont have room for the larger electronic one. and the pioints dont create a strong enough spark and it sputters when i punch it.. should i get a msd setup or what have you guys done to fix this problem?

It will give more clearance between the dist and the firewall due to it being a smaller dist. than the monster GM hei dist. may still have problems with the bellhousing to firewall clearance unless you can get the motor to sit low enough for clearance.
