I don't know if this is still appropriate, but when the HEI was first introduced it had a high failure rate (any of us at GM "in the know" carried a spare module in the glove compartment). The problem was that the conductive grease that was supposed to be under the module was often missing or improperly applied. Do replacement modules still come with a little tube of grease? It used to be important - don't know if it still is or if the components are now good for a higher temperature.
FWIW

I think a lot has to do with where you drive. Here in Nevada I travel thru areas where there are few places to get common parts so I keep more on board. I keep most of my spare parts behind the bathroom sliding cabinet and I have a list what is there if I need anything as the cabinet would need to be dissembled to get back there. HEI parts should be at the top of your list.
