The Nylock bolt, or a stud with a self locking nut, would be easiest, I think. A '70 350 I had, had a Dist. hold down made of about 3/16 spring steel rod, and held down with a u-shaped bracket and bolt; the rod had enough spring to it that when tightened down, it acted as it's own tensioning device; the ends of the rod were what contacted the distr. flange, and they were cut on a slight angle to give them "bite".

The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
