The stock distributor is a "Delco Remy"...And just for your information, you might as well keep using the stock unit because I just bought a new "Douglas Unified Ignition" (DUI) High Performance racing distributor and guess what brand name is stamped on the casing....Delco Remy...
..They just put there own coil and ICM into it, charge $319.00, and its a High Performance unit...
..Yea, Right.....WW

...Better to get the DUI cap and module and add it to your Delco unit. I got lucky and scored an almost new DUI unit for $30

chevys hei is the best thing that ever happened to an engine, for a stock setup , its perfect. for mildly altered , with a few upgrades, its still the best, thats why DUI and others put them in everything from toyota's to fords, they are reliable to a fault. I installed one of DUI's setups in my ford tow truck when I got tired of fords ign. module. you can even take a chevy ign module , fasten it to a fender with a zip tie and with grease under it , run wires to it, and run any vehicle that has a ign module style setup and a bunch that dont. it eliminates needing a resistor , either ballast or wire. I did that on my tow truck also. hope this helps
