Who has tackled rebuilding their own Marelli distributor, and to what level of success?
I can find a few core candidates on eBay and the classifieds. What makes a good core? There are rebuild kits and parts now. I've found a couple videos and tutorials. The mechanical seems reasonable. I have access to a media blaster for cleanup. What I don't have is a Sun machine or way to check the centrifugal advance when I'm done. What are the other pitfalls that make sending one out for restoration a $500+ job? What is the worst case outcome if it's messed up and put on an engine?

we have PERFECT caps and rotors for the marelli Had a thousand of each made about ten years ago, then all of a sudden they began to pop up on the internet. We bought one set and they actually both were marked with our logo "auatl". Someone copied what we had done but did not realize that our logo was not factory original!!!!
