replace distributor cap/rotor

Easy recommendation...
I have a L03TBI 91 Firebird, planning to change distributor cap and rotor.
Seems like the previous threads recommend either copper or brass, and most MSD brand.
Anybody knows the correct part # for MSD? Some threads states 8442, other 8406.
I am some what confuse.. I just dont want to go to the auto parts for them to recommend anything.
Thanks in advanced.

8406. Just check for the part on the store's web site. It's smarter than lots of the people that work there. Where are you buying from?

I usually go to Advanced auto part, it is close by.
Do you think is that a good cap rotor, or do you recommend another one?
