A few questions about ignition upgrade on 304

I have read all the post about the TR upgrade on the stock ignition and read all the bad stories about buying the cheaper HEI units and chewing up the gears. I would like to go with one wire hookup as I can cut down on troubleshooting later on if problems occur. My AMC 304 has just been built and a new cam gear was installed.
Just a note: I have a AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l now and did the nutter bypass and larger base,cap,rotor,plug wires and the ford coil.
1. Can I take my stock AMC 304 dizzy and just add the base,cap,rotor and 7mm plug wires and use the square coil from my AMC 258 i6 / 4.2l upgrade and be done with a .045 plug gap?
2. Can I buy a HEI AMC HEI Distributor for JEEP V8 | eBay
and go to auto parts store and order stock dizzy gear, gap plugs and replace and be done?
Just any final feedback before I do the setup.
thanks.
