The distributor mounted ICMs are known to suffer from heat related issues but there were and still are millions of them on the road. Use an OEM quality replacement and plenty of heat sink compound. Set a reminder to re-apply the heat sink compound every 3-5 years.

It's cheaper than the $55 USD price tag for that kit. On the other hand you stand less of a chance of a heat related failure for a remote mount ICM. $55 buys a lot of beer or a very nice single batch bourbon

For $55 it may be peace of mind. The cost of a tube of heat sink compound and a calendar reminder...free.

Your choice. I understand keeping the family budget in check.
