Which distributor should I use?

Since it does not sound like you are wanting anything particularly original, then I second the thought of doing an HEI conversion. The extra spark energy really makes a valuable performance difference. I do believe Trailbeast sells HEI conversions for the Mopar distributors.

(And I don't have any bias to any particular one... I raced 4 bangers for ages on points to 8+K RPM. Totally reliable and easy to work with once you learned them.)

Thanks for the mention, but I no longer do the HEI kits, only the advance modded and total limited distributors for the electronic ignition.

I don't mind changing the points. I'm just adding some stuff to this engine. Based around the xe262 cam or one higher while maintaining stock compression or some head milling

This type of build is an excellent candidate for an HEI conversion though I gotta say that.:D
Heck even a "ready to run" distributor and a good E or C core coil would be pretty cheap and effective for that motor.
Less than 100 bucks for the entire hotter than stock ignition system.

These are pretty hard to beat for the money and do the job very well for a mild motor car.
Comes with 8mm wires, separators and all, and you don't have to build or rig anything.
