Ford distributor restoration services?

Does anyone know a reputable business that can rebuild my dual advance distributor for my 292 and give me back the same distributor? I bought a rebuilt distributor and was not happy with the quality that was done. Any help would be appreciated.

I was going to replace the cam and a few other parts but can't find individual parts to put on so I thought to just have it rebuilt but I can't find a good rebuilder. I would like the same distributor back. The last time I bought a "rebuilt" distributor I ended up fixing it myself. So I was looking at someone that specializes in rebuilding ford distributors. Thanks.

I bet an electronic setup would cost a lot less, and if done right you couldn't tell from the outside...
