It's your ride and your bucks, so spend it as you wish. Personally, I installed a Pertronix unit in my 230 for right around $100, carry the original unit as a spare in case of emergency, and am happy as a clam with the end results. Better starting, better fuel mileage, plugs burn cleaner, and no more setting points. If you really want a HEI,they can be modified very easily to work for your situation, and at a LOT less than $225.
