Bill,
A trip to the local NAPA distribution center could work. I am friendly with one of the local NAPA sales guys and a few years ago we rummaged through all of the rebuilt "FE" distributors at the DC. Found a 68 Cobra Jet housing as well as 62-63 Thunderbird tri-power unit. Of course they were all "rebuilt" as standard units but the casting number and date code are what counts, the guts can be redone. Best part was the $40 some dollar cost as opposed to the several hundred fleabay cost.
The rebuilders do not differentiate between the units, so long as it fits an "FE" car, it is generally one part number....despite the curve being incorrect for most any application!
We have done the same thing with water pumps, power steering pumps and alternators. Opening boxes and looking at them costs nothing........
