MSD Blaster 2 coil is about the standard. If you have a points ignition system you need to use a ballast resistor, which MSD makes as well. According to MSD "The ballast resistor must be used with stock Points Ignition and Mallory Unilite applications"- it keeps you from burning up the points.
Pep Boys online has all this stuff, it is cheap, and they have free standard shipping.
