Compared an Accel 8220 to the Cap I have.
Does look very similar- Not sure if it might possibly work in a pinch with some modification (I didn't pull out the Distributor itself to verify)- but visually it's not a direct replacement fitment:

1) The ID is about 0.080" smaller on the 8220
2) Different provisions for locking the rotation of the cap on the Dist body (slots/tabs)
3) The Cap to Body locking mechanism tabs on the outside of the cap are different height.

Believe that 8220 is for a Ford application.
The 8330 I believe is a Chrysler application.

I had the store order one of those 8330s to try out tomorrow.
