Gary,
It's a fact, I found that out a couple of months ago. I contacted Moss
about this, and they confirmed that they are not being currently reproduced.
Realey Healey has a supply from some source (I got mine there), and I
believe that the Nocks still carry them, plus a couple of the UK vendors
still have them.
If you have trouble finding one, let me know, I have one non Healey source
that I know has at least one NOS aftermarket one left, but he is going to
want $$$ for it.
It pretty distressing that distributor caps are not being reproduced, and
the ignition rotors that we buy are absolute pieces of junk. (four new
rotors down, two to go)

Subject: Distributor Cap
Went in to my friendly local British parts supplier yesterday and asked for
a
new distrib cap to replace the broken one on my BN7. The fellow at the
counter checked his computer (they buy their parts from Moss) and said it
was listed
as "not available."
Is that possible? Or was he, perhaps, looking at the listing for the
original
Lucas-marked cap?
Cheers
Gary
