Angry Frozen Distributor 66 Olds 330

Anyone out there ever experienced a frozen distributor. My timing is way off.That was my project for the evening.
I have tried to soak and rotate the body .I dont want to force it and shear something off . All and any ideas are invited.

What did you soak it with? I presume you mean around the collar that fits into the block. If you didn't use PB Blaster I suggest you do, I really believe in it. Just follow the directions on the can. Some distributors really take some coaxing to break loose, sort of pull and twist counter clockwise at the same time. (I think it is counter clockwise, it's been a while. Will have to look at a distributor again).
