All you really need to look for is just a duraspark distibutor. It will usually have a single vacuum hookup and will have a set of wires connecting to a female plug hanging from it. Most part stores should be able to get you one

If you are looking used I believe the Duraspark II on the 300's would be in the 77-82 year range.
