" During the first week, probably 25 years ago, the little sheetmetal module thingy with one wire on one end and two on the other failed. I dont know how I knew that was the problem"

A a start, check your power connections.

That part description got me stumped.

Almost, but not quite, thinking OP might have a unitized distributor instead of HEI.

I've worked on a few old cars with tired ignition switches. How far or how hard you twisted the key, determined if the engine would fire up or just have starter spin.
