Default distributor parts?

Is there any place to buy rebuild parts for a 71 tach drive distributor? I pulled by dist. today because the tach wasnt working. Old cable was dead so I put in a new one which didnt fix the tach. So pulled the dist. and the shaft and gear that drives the tach are toast.

Most of the major Corvette suppliers carry distributor parts. Long Island Corvette would be the quickest.

Paragon seems to have most all the parts.

And the parts from Paragon are machined correctly.
