Being a twat I have it the wrong way round, I've not looked at the engine for a couple of months, in my example above the top "Male" drive is what came out and it's the "Female" on the replacement distributor that I need to fit. Your example on the Mallory is the opposite of what I need to achieve. Does anyone know if the oil pumps are interchangeable between early and late V8's ? |

I think it's just the ignition module on the dizzy (Dizzy is a 35LM8 I think), 35 DML8 if it's the same as the Vitesse, etc. Ask for a Lucas DAB 118 as a replacement amp. It's meant to be a better design - and I've certainly found mine reliable to date. It looks near enough the same and fits straight on, but has a three pin plug (only two used) rather than the two of the original and they supply a plug with it. I made up a new loom from coil to distributor (only the two wires) and kept the old one with plug just in case. The colours are white and white/black, so some Maplin 2.5mm speaker wire does the job for pennies and looks the part. |

I'm not certain but I think you'd have to swop the timing chain cover as that's part of the oil pump. |
