It's been a while since I've been into one but if you have the breaker points cam and pivot plate that was originally in that distributor, it should swap back in. Or leave the duraspark distributor in place and add an MSD 6A or similar box. The Duraspark distributor is an excellent trigger device and plays well with an MSD box. You will then have one of the hottest ignition systems possible and the duraspark trigger coil is very reliable and available. Hope this helps,...................

Pertronix will trigger an MSD 6A or 6AL bo,x possibly others too. I drove with such a setup for a whole summer.

Can a Pertronix unit be used as a trigger for a MSD 6AL or even for a HEI module?

One thing I like about MSD It protects the Mallory E-Spark/Unilite from power surges.

Pertronix instructions for Ignitor I are contradictory in that they recommend leaving any ballast resistor connected when retaining a factory or stock type ignition coil. When using "their" ignition coil though, they recommend disconnecting or bypassing the extra resistance. The primary ignition circuit overall for the ignitor I requires a minimum of 1.5 ohms. It's been a reliable unit for me. So were points, but they put the distributor all the way back at the firewall! Whose idea was that!?
