Default Which MSD Distributor?

I presently have a MSD 85561 distributor that has all mechanical advance. From what I have read and the way the car performs, I am thinking of switching it out for a 8361 to have a more broad advance through the rpm range. Now the choice is between the 8361 and the E-Curve. I would appreciate any opinions form you guys here on the forum. Also the car is all street driven, never been to the track. thank you
