  Andrew,

I would call or email Jeff at Advanced Distributors:
http://www.advanceddistributors.com/.

When I had my dizzy rebuilt over the winter, he replaced my rotor and
cap.  Both are far superior to what the big 3 offer, maybe he can
provide your friend one.

Thanks,

Craig

modern Lucas 400051 has failed suddenly in his car, and the second time
I got him going instantly with an old rotor I pilfered out of my
Standard Pennant distributor! (I know this has become an all-too-common
problem for many.)

I know I can get the "good" rotors to replace the Lucas 400051 (and/or
equivalent) from several sources in the UK, such as the Distributor
Doctor. Are there sources in the US for these?

TIA....
