I would go buy a new aftermarket HEI dist. They usually run somewhere about $150, and they are plug and play. Money well spent. Don't buy a real cheap one though, get a Mallory or Accel. My old truck ran 8.40s in the 1/8th with an old HEI, changed the dist, and it went 8.0s, with that one thing changed. Good luck!
