A March dist. date for a May built car is perfect so long as the engine assembly date is after the dist. build date.

Thanks for the input everybody. Right now it looks like I have a combination of a March carb, mid April block, late April trans, March distributor, April alternator and Jan rear end. All this for a late May car, what are your thoughts? To be honest if the distributor does not sell I will put it away and will probably run an MSD digital because I have always had good luck with them. Also the block checked out with over a 100 thou thickness in 4 sides of the bores in all cylinders after I go to 4.250. I think I will run 990 open chamber heads or see if I can find some fairly priced 074,077 aluminum heads and bump the compression then see what kind of power I can make out of a 427 that looks like a 396.

All of the component dates you listed are just fine for a May built car. The rear is perhaps a little early, but still well within an accepted range.
