Question Ignition upgrade questions

This is a similar theme to my previous post. My 100K miles 90 notch has a completely original ignition sytem, 1990 date coded motorcraft wires and all. The distributor cap just failed on me the other day and I was able to walk to a parts store and get a replacment and fix it without any tools!!!!! That was too cool.

That was a cheapo wells cap cover and rotor. I want to get a nice cap$rotor, wires and coil set. What are some good ones to go for???
Or to go more insane a MSD or similar box, replace the stock distributor?? or maybe a new or improved TFI module? What problems are caused with aftermarket dist or modules with the computer???
