There are quite a few out there really. Accel used to offer one that plugged right in. I have it in my '79 F-350. I don't see this line of distributors anymore, however. There are quite a few manufacturers out there, though. Do some checking through Summit, or Jegs. You should be able to locate one that would plug right in, or at the very least, some of those should have directions on wiring up their distributor to your ignition module.
