alan pettit Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 I have a mk4 spitfire 1300 engine which ive bought rebuilt with triumphtune fast road cam and some head work .it dosent have a distributor. Should i hunt for a mk4 Delco Type or would a lucas one do the job? What actually need to be done to the distributor to take up the benifit of the faster cam etcWould be grateful for any advice before i hunt for something I might not actually need...ThanksAlan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thescrapman Posted September 14, 2011 Share Posted September 14, 2011 AlanIt is probably best to find a Lucas one as the rolling roads will probably be more able to chenge springs in them rather than Delco dissysCheersColin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilnaz Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 Beware of the Tachometer drive difference. A delco for the MkIV will have cable tacho drive and substituting for a Lucas (from a 1500) would mean losing the cable tacho drive so you would need to change your tacho to one suited to be electrically driven.......
