Doubt you will find a 'one-stop-shop' for those parts. Ignition:
try
www.123ignitionshop.com
www.classicretrofit.com

I think MSD may now be outdated and you will need to find an alternative.
Finding people who know how to tune these old engines are getting few and far between.

For advice Autofarm and Tuttill may be of help.
Another specialist that comes to mind are
Peter Chambers Automotive www.pcaltd.co.uk


The pistons etc are easy to get in the UK, Google and you will find someone.

The MSD 6AL-2 is a mappable system so you could use it with a locked dizzy. However with the not so fantastic £-$ exchange rate get these from the US is not as attractive as it once was.

However, I have now bitten the bullet and spent the extra dosh on the Classic Retrofit kit, which is very good, again using a locked dizzy.

Magnecore leads are good but the std Porsche leads if in good shape are also up to the job.
