Default Quality Condenser replacement

Hey where can a good quality .35 MFD condenser be bought online these days?

I need some spares.

Alternatively, what chevy/mopar alternative will work as a replacement?

This is for 12V (not from what Im told) that it should make any real difference?

Can anyone help?

Thanx !

NAPA IH-200 is a popular choice for flatheads.

I have Vertex mag condensors ( new ) for $32 each.
I have never seen a bad one , they run .035 mfds-. to .040....
A friend with a mag business had these made up new.....

The IH200 napa is a good unit however its .024 mfds ......

My vote is for the Vertex mag condensor that Bubba's sells. It works great, no more failures. Also recommend the Bosch "blue" coil.
