Can anyone recommend (or steer me away from) a brand?

Well, Slick's are slick but the devil is in the details.. When Fat
Albert needed the mags spiffed up I elected to replace them totally
over just replacing parts... I looked at the Slicks and really like
them... But, a grizzled and really old A&P, name of Bill, looked at
me, rolled his cigarette from one side of his mouth to the other and
said, "Check and see if anyone can fix a Slick magneto, right today.
Tell em you gotta fly home tonight" (This was 10AM on December
24th)... Then he gave me that evil grin he is known for...
So I whipped out my trusty cellphone and called three different FBO's
in Michigan... Nobody had parts for a Slick but they all had most
parts for Bendix and one even said he had the adapter for the Slick
harness and could put a Bendix magneto together for me that would work
and get me home..
I bought 4 rebuilt Bendix mags... The Fat Boy starts like he is a
teenager again... And I know that if they break down almost any FBO
will have parts on hand...
