Cap and Rotor

Has anyone tried the Bosch or niehoff cap and rotors? I have to replace mine on my 1980 Bronco with a 351M and was wondering which is best.

i thought nieoff was cheap stuff. It doesn't really matter but a cap with brass contact points is best.

I found the brass Acell cap and rotor didn't last.

^ the way I figure, it's cheaper to buy an MSD from summit racing than it is to buy a stock replacement from NAPA. I bought two caps and two rotors last time from summit, and my final cost, including shipping was $40. Stock cap alone at NAPA is 25, then the rotor is at least 10 more on top of that.
