Introducing the "123 ignition"
The ignition in a classic car is often the source of many problems. After years of use the mechanical distributor becomes worn and increasingly inaccurate. Although replacement of the standard points with an optical eye or magnetic ignition setup is an improvement, it does not compensate for the wear in the advance mechanism, the distributor shaft and bearings within the distributor itself.
This distributor is different. It comes in its own aluminum billet and nickel plated housing, although externally similar in its classic appearance to its mechanical counterpart, it contains high-tech electronics on the inside. While maintaining classical appearances under the bonnet, the internal technology makes your ignition system and engine perform better than ever before, and run as smoothly and reliably as a Japanese sewing-machine.
Maintenance free timing
All moving parts - like the original points, the centrifugal weights, the springs, the bearings and the vacuum diaphragm - have been replaced with just one moving part: the central shaft with the rotor.
The internal electronics provide the right advance and the optimum dwell-angle throughout the rev-range to maintain peak energy and peak performance. There is no wear altering the timing of this distributor once set, youll never have to worry about it again!
Installation and tuning
Mounting and tuning is not a big deal. The distributor comes with a detailed English and German (on request) language installation and tuning manual with several pictures showing the easy work in five steps.
We can deliver distributors for further car models.
