Default -83 Ignition rotor question (carb conversion)

Just to clarify, does the ignition rotor need to be replaced for the -83 OEM ignition rotor HD part # 32402-83, when doing the Morelli EFI to carb conversion? I have heard yes and no?

yes, stock marelli rotor wont work

the H-D part is $$$...like $185 from the local stealer

my indy got me a generic-brand rotor that's been working just fine for 1500 miles (before i tore her down again), total cost was ~ $52 (i did have to swap the plastic connector parts over tho, oh well). I'll see if I can find the p/n
