Non-resistor rotor part number?

After my upgrade to a MSD Streetfire ignition I'm in need of a non-resistor rotor. I called our host and they had no idea what I was talking about. Does anyone have the PP part #?
My local Napa is trying to source a EP407 rotor with no luck. Thanks!

Try Hawaii Import Parts, go there and ask them to see their selection of rotors, you will find one that works.

I tried them first. They also had no idea what I was talking about. Air Cooled Specialists had never heard of them either..

Napa online won't ship to Hawaii. I have a local Napa trying to source one but has not called me back so I'm guessing they gave up.

I'm going to take my current rotor to the parts house to see what they can match it to that is a non-resistor rotor.

Take your rotor inside and show it to them, don't tell them it's for a 911.

Or, I have an extra you can use until you find one.

The problem is you aren't fitting a standard part

I made my own from a stock SC rotor. Dig out the resin and resistor and solder a copper wire across and you're good to go.
If it makes you feel better you can cover the "repair" with some two part epoxy. I used POR Patch on mine.

It isn't the correct part for your car, you are trying to find a non stock part that does something different than the stock part.
The rotor you are looking for was never intended to be used on any 911 for any purpose.

I took the rotor into Hawaii Import Parts today to have them match it up and they had ZERO idea what I was talking about and nothing that would work. All 5 guys working had never heard of a of a non-resistor rotor.
