Does anybody know of a Canadian source for distributor cap, rotor, points... ?
I tried sourcing some at FLAPS, but whatever they gave me doesn't actually fit. |

Distributor: Bosch 9230 081 050
Points: 9232 081 044 (Can use 01 030) Condenser: 9231 081 465 (Can use 02 086) Rotor: 9231 081 628 Cap: 9 231 081 413 Coil: 6 Volt - 00 016, 12 Volt - 00 012 The 050 is semi rare, hasn't been made since the 70's, but it's still sort of sought after by the T1 VW go fast crowd. They can suffer from bad bushings, check for play in the shaft. What are you running carbs or L-jet? Carbs you might be able to keep it, L-jet I'd get a bosch 205 from a 914 or late bay bus. Personally I like the mallory red cap way better than the 050 or the 009. If you're on a budget, in the past I've taken an old mallory red cap dual point and modified it with a pertronix. |
