Distributor and Ignition wire questions

Ok, some dumb questions here. I'm still new to these boards. I was looking into getting a new set of ignition wires for my car. I really want those MSD 8.5 mm Super Conductors. looking to get a universal set from summit, but there are many options. Our distributor is a 90 degree HEI style, right? But which wire set should I get? There is an option for 90 degree spark plug boots and terminals and multi angle spark plug boots. Also, which rotor is the right one for my GTA?

Is it this one?

Or the small cap HEI rotor?

Can I also use this GM racing style rotor? It says it fits any GM distributor that uses a points style rotor.

As you can tell, I'm somewhat not mechanically inclined, but I'm learning!! TIA for any help

i don't like the multi angle boots, tell the tech guy when you order what sort of car/engine you have and he ought to be able to get you what you need.
