Performance Modulator for 2.8?

I arced a spark plug wire on my 1988 2.8 RS with Multiport Injection. I am going to replace the distributor module because arcing puts a ton of strain on the modulator. Does any company sell a performance modulator for this application?

Best ignition module out there is a GM unit. I'll even use a JY pull before an aftermarket.

Thanks, RBob. I was hoping for something like the Dyna-module used in the Performance Distributor units but it looks like even the performance distributor they sell for the 2.8 uses a GM factory unit.

Jeg's is now selling aftermarket modules for the distributors we use. They have them in the Jeg's brand as well as MSD.
