I'd go with AC Delco. I think you can get them through Rock Auto in addition to your local supply house.

You can revert back to a cast iron unit from a previous model year but it might take some trickery. I've had some cast iron m/c where the front chamber goes to the rear brakes and the rear chamber to the front system and aluminum units where it's the opposite (front==>front; rear==>rear) ...or vice versa...

In that case you would have to swap the brake lines. Not as straightforward as keeping your current style.
