You can get one from any like 75 or so and UP truck. Not sure if they had them in 73 or 74 yet? I assume by '75 they had electronic ignition. Hit the junk yards and get one(find the duraspark box too). Or you could buy a new one at A-zone or such.

Most aluminum intakes were aftermarket. There were a couple factory pieces, but you will pay TOP dollar for them. Hit the swap meets or ask around here. I'm sure somone will have one they will part with.

Any size FE distributor will work, same with intake.

'73 was still points. I'm running a Mallory Unilite in my truck. Do a search for Pertronics; you'll find lots on that upgrade.

I agree, the pertronics Ignitor II is awesome. Find them on eBay at a good price also can find your manifold on eBay. I did and was completely satisfied.

i also run the pertronix II. it works great and is already paying for itself by not burning out points anymore. very easy install too.
