HEI guts?

Hey guys, I need a new dizzy, this one is giving me all sorts of problems, but I don't want to replace the whole thing, just the electronic guts, weights, springs, rotor etc. How much would it cost to get this stuff new? Is it worth it to recurve it right away with new springs / weights? Its already got a new cap and a new coil in it, along with new cables and plugs.

I know this should probally be in the parts forum, but has anyone got the guts, and know if I can buy the spring and weight set online somewhere?

I would need all the electronics, rotor, and a vac canister, along with any other parts that could affect the dizzy's performance (its shaft is fine, nice and solid with no real play, the gears look awesome)

Russell, I've got the stock HEI dizzy that came out of my Blazer. It kept blowing the module (or whatever you call it) for some reason. I changed it twice before swapping to the MSD, Don't know what is wrong with it. Anything you need out of it is yours, just let me know.

After I replaced everything in mine, I realized that I could have spent just a bit more and gotten good stuff from MSD or ACCEL from Summit Racing.
