Distributor Pickup test

I have had Mopar picks up read as low as 140 ohms. And they work fine. Cars that have VA connected flex the p/up wires during operation. Do enough miles, & the wires break, no spark.
I doubt the new p/up is faulty. Check that the air gap is 0.006-8". Another test you can do: disconnect the p/up leads & connect a volt meter [ AC range ] to the p/up leads. As the dist rotates, a small voltage should be generated as the reluctor tip passes the pole piece; anywhere from a few millivolts to volts, depending on the rotational speed of the dist shaft.
