Howdy,

Welcome aboard!

There's more than a few out there, Google Marine distributors and you'll find a lot of choices in Mallory, Delco, MSD and Davis. Many people like the Mallory sold all over. Other like the Delco EST.

You can even buy one right here: http://www.iboats.com/mall/partfinde...n_id=553742314

The example below is a points type for about $270+ .... many suppliers sell it. Just do a search using the below part number

Marine YL Series Point Type Distributors - 351W Ford Single Point


# 675-YL554CV

• Stabilized points eliminate point float and bounce.
• High dielectric condenser with brass case eliminates corrosion.
• Mylar insulation provides greater protection against current leaks and shorting.
