Now, you're going to get a lot of opinions on this, so I'm adding mine first since I got to approve the thread. 
If your FB is mainly stock or even has a mild street port with an upgraded exhaust, there's really no point in messing with the ignition system if it's the '81 - '85 FB ignitor-on-distributor system. Just kick up to a better set of spark plug wires and maybe get a set of Jacob's chrome coils and call it a day.
If you've got some serious mods, I still don't think I'd mess with 2ndgen ignition stuff and would simply jump up to direct fire ignition.
