search for your engine rather than the car model?

Distributors are not specific car or engine based, even jaguars used gm hei distributors, at any rate i found the parts needed, turns out that msd makes a replacement kit for the very two parts that i needed lol guess they know that they burn out often. anyway the replacement is called:

MSD Ignition 8194 Connector kit on amazon, however its actually 2 dollars cheaper through summit though, they call it MSD Distributor Replacement parts 8194.

Hope someone else finds my findings useful!

IMHO, this is the best buy because of free shipping.

Depending on where you are from. For instance I live in washington state, literally a 9 percent tax on anything bought online and shipped. That item would come out to the same as what I got it for on Amazon. But if I would have bought it In Tennessee where they dont tax shipping items, then maybe. Summit is still cheaper though, if you're buying other items that's equal to over 99 bucks to get their free shipping.

Everybody forgets NAPA....I've gone to NAPA...where they used to have YARDS of parts catalogs....Picked up the ELECTRICAL catalog and found the stuff I wanted.

Napa has MILLIONS of esoteric parts.
