For MGB and MGB GT technical discussions.
I got my carpet kit from them. Decent folks, good service.
I have one of those here. The rotor is one piece joined with the trigger wheel for the electronic ignition. It tends to ride up the shaft and rub on the distributor cap, seizing the carbon brush in place. I had to glue it to the shaft just to do an initial test on the distributor test machine. Made in China. Wholesale price of $18 plus shipping. Spend th emoney on something else - it'll only last a few weeks and replacement parts are basically not available. Its not even a Lucas copy - its a goofy design with the cap and rotor being the only interchangeable parts with Lucas stuff.
And that's the REST of the story!
Thanks Jeff. Still have one to send to you.
