Scottie, though there are are minor, let's say trivial, differences in capacitance of condensors, for the most part the car doesn't care if they are for 6 volt, 12 volt, 4, 6 or 8 cylinder - normally just get one whose pigtail is long enough to reach.

No reason to pay high prices or get old and perhaps questionable merchandise from eBay for points, condensors, caps, rotors and the like, they are all very much still in manufacture by or for NAPA (Echlin) and for sale at normal auto parts stores. Non-Napa stores usually stock another brand. Rarely in stock, you'll have to wait a day for them. You'll want to know the current numbers for the parts to save you from lazy countermen and hopefully someone will come along and post them. If not, tell me if your distributor is Auto-Lite or Delco and I'll advise.
