I have some of the pre-wired distibutors that I'm having trouble getting the wires to stay on the engine...I've tried model car glue as well as super glue.. Does anything work better??? Or am I just not doing it right?? Any help would be appreciated..

Drill small holes helps or heat up a straight pin and melt holes then glue them in motor

Brad is dead on. Drill the block with a really small bit or heat up a thumb tack, push pin or sewing pin and make a hole.
It helps if you can get the block as cold as you can before drilling or putting the pin through it. It keeps the surrounding area from warping or getting 'mushy' from the friction/heat transfer.

Thanks guys.. I hadn't thought of that... I've only been building models for 30 some years now, so my knowledge is limited!!! LOL Thanks again...
