Crystal I think you could also easily buy the wiring, etc at your local big box hardware and follow Rain's tutorial on rewiring. You can google it....
Cogito,
I picked up a 127 a couple years ago with a Chinese repro HC on it. I put the HC on my 99K, Rusty. It needed cleaned internally and greased. Once that was done it worked just fine. And as I've used it it has smoothed out significantly.

Considering how rarium and expensive the original vintage HCs are, the Chinese ones do make sense.
