New TPI/TBI distributor or rebuild used?
Been looking at the Ramjet distributor (p/n 1104060) GMPP sells. It's around $200 and appears to be complete (cap, rotor, module, pickup coil, etc etc). As far as I have been pricing it would be well over this price to rebuild a used one (main shaft alone is $100). My engine (and distributor) came out of a taxi, with over 450,000 KM on it so I don't want to be running that as is in my new 355 (w/ roller cam).
19052845 -- Melonized distributor gear (for roller cams)
D1987 -- pickup coil
10467353 -- main shaft (appears to come w/ new rotor p/n D470)
D1943A -- ignition module
D303A -- distributor cap
The parts above quickly adds up to or above the cost of the RamJet distributor. Anyone running the RamJet distributor? Thoughts?

Most popular one on here for perf use ( ($$$ permitting ) is the MSD# 8366
