Re: need distributor advce
It kind of depends on how you drive your truck and how you want the engine to look.
I like GM style Hei myself. One reason is if anything happens on a trip parts are readily available.

Re: need distributor advce
A stock H.E.I. is about $150. I don't think you'll need much more to get you going again. Make sure you buy a name you recognize and toss it in. If you wanna dial it in better once its running good again update this thread and we'll sort you out.

Re: need distributor advce
I put a stock HEI in my '72 several years ago. No problems. That's what I'd recommend.
