What would be the best igniter on the market for this setup? I have a 1978 FJ40.

Wow I'm glad they charged an extra buck, I wouldn't buy it at $666 myself. Isn't the igniter attached to the coil in that top right pic?
 
is that a points distributor?
 
Perhaps you meant distributor?

I you meant ignitor, I totally agree with @3_puppies about not needing one. And I would go a step further and say that I wouldn’t WANT one. If you’re looking at a world-market 61180 dizzy, they are extremely stable, meaning, once you’ve set the dwell properly (not point gap) an ignitor is unnecessary. The last time I drove my FJ40 to Texas and back (2600 miles round trip), I set the dwell before I left and had an uneventful trip.
