    Stock with points.
    Should I have the modified V-8 cap or would it just look like a regular cap?
    Told you the questions were just beginning:)

    If its a pointed igniton it will look like a standard 6 cylinder cap. If it has a small window on the face of the cap its a Delco distributor, otherwise its prestolite distributor.

    The window is for adjusting the dwell on the points.
