Hi,

 

After playing around with one of my cars for hours, I was able to nail down
one of the existing problems to the Lucas distributor. I installed one of my
Mallory dizzys, problem solved. Unfortunately, MDS now owns Mallory and they
seem to have let all the import car parts lines to die. I've been poking
around looking for replacements and at this time it seems like 123 and
Pertonix are the only options. I'm not sure I like either because it looks
like the caps and rotors are close to Lucas (which is part of my concern)
and it also looks like expensive.

 

In any case, I'm looking for whether 123 better than Pertonix and whether
its worth trying to rebuild one of the box full of Lucas units that I have
via Advanced Distributors or not.

 

Any feedback is welcome, but I don't want to switch to crank-triggered
ignition, thankyou.

 

C ya,

Bob Lang
