I would just go to any autoparts store and get an msd cap and rotor. They are brass conductors and work better than stock in my opinion though it really doesnt matter for a stock application.

I'm a fan of brass, though as noted, it doesn't matter much. The brass seems to pit (carbon tracking) less than the aluminum points.

X2 on the MSD cap. It's a quality piece. The ring clip retains the wires down tight.

Apparently my ex-husband made that mistake.

It doesn't really matter as long as it has brass parts in it. All the autoparts stores sell 2 levels of cap and rotor, brass and aluminum. The best used to be the Accel cap and rotor, because Accel used to press in the brass, and then machine it in a perfect radius. They have stopped doing that now, and produce their caps in the same fashion as every other manufacturer.

I don't know about the Taylor dizzy cap but I had their plug wires and they're crap. I still have the MSD dizzy cap/rotor though and they're good. Go for MSD.

Last time I tried to change my plugs I pulled the plug wires carefully off each one, except that the plug end metal contacts decided to separate from three of the wires. Luckily I had a set of stock wires as spares so I threw those on instead.
