hi go for thee swap its so easy,one wire hook up no problems and no more points to foul or gap etc...I was a dedicated points guy until this week too. As some of the fellas said its still 30 some year old technology so why not go modern with hei. As for a manufacturer I used a mallory ready to run hei its got adjustable vacuum and mechanical advances so you can custum curve your own distributor, it also comes with a coil and module. The part # is maa-8548201c and is about $160.00 at summit or jegs. refer to the posst engine tuning to see what kind of grief my old points system caused me.
