tried pep boys no luck. the only performance cap and rotors there were, were for 350 SB Chevy and some Ford applications. looking for an ACCEL cap and rotor preferably but im interested in anything that outperforms stock.

AutoZone carries the Conrad cap and rotor kit. It is part number DR2012G for $19.99. This cap is red and has brass contacts. They can also get the Accel kit. The Conrad kit is usually a stock item on the shelf. The Accel is probably a special order. I prefer the Conrad. It not only works well, it looks good, especially with the Fiero Store red wires.
Hope this helps.

We can't get Wells/Conrad caps up here anymore. But I found an MSD kit that fits. The GM 4.3L V6 used in Syclone/Typhoon uses a similar distributor and they use the same cap/rotor kit as our 2.8 engines.
MSD PN# 8430, Wells DR2012-G, Conrad DR-2012-G. I suspect they're all made by the same manufacturer, because they all have brass contacts and quality appears to be equal.

Yep. Conrad is good stuff. Autozone also has red stock type replacement wires, fine unless you have a seriously powerful aftermarket ign. system. I also recommend the Crane Fireball coil. Its a direct replacement for stock- no purple paint, it LOOKS o.e. Works better, and lasts.

The Crane Fireball coil is what I use with a Hi-6 box. The fireball is a maybe the best replacement coil on the market. I tried MSD's replacement coil but didn't care for its build quality, (maybe a fluke).

ive got an accel coil and havent had ANY problems. i think that prettymuch any cap and rotor will work.
Accel coil (the direct replacement one), and the red Autozone (Conrad) cap and rotor in mine too. Been fine for years, coil is 7 years old now (100K+ miles), 2nd cap.
