Ted Eaton recently tested a CRT Performance electronic distributor for Y-blocks. Although they're made in China, he could not fault it. It has a mechanical tach drive for 55-57 Tbirds, but also provisions for hooking up an electric tach. It also has an adjustable vacuum advance. Expect to pay about $250/w free shipping. They may have one without the mechanical tach drive that's even cheaper.

Lots of good stuff can be found at y-blocksforever.com, and Ted is very good about replying to email.
Why spend the money. His is fixable.
