Since yours fires well above 2000 rpm when the boost is increasing, it is OK voltage wise. That does not mean there might not be a timing problem or an errant spark causing a misfire or backfire.
But do upgrade to an aftermarket distributor when you can. I don't think that any HEI will clear the blower. I would avoid magnetos. When you upgrade ignition systems, do it as A SYSTEM... get all the components including plug wires from the same manufacturer. I would go MSD.

i would get a msd 6al box for the distb. then i would get a fuel regultor on it and set timming to 25 deg total with the coldest plugs i could find
and i would run a 36 slug on the bottom run it at 5 % under
