I did change to a centrifugal advance dizzy, I guess you could tap the manifold for vacuum and use the original. Mallory make a nice replacement. Oh and welcome...

The 009 does not have the proper advance curve to run these motors.
It does not have enough total advance. Do not use one of those. The stock distributor from the Ljet motor will work, just remove the vacuum advance canister and cover that hole on the distributor. This is the best solution and least cost. The vacuum advance was there to provide initial advance when the motor was at low RPM..it was there for emmisions, not performance. Removal of this vacuum advance does NOT affect the total advance, it just affects WHEN the advance starts...at what rpm. The next option is the 050 distributor. The advance curve is closer and I have used it on carbed type 4 motors, it works fairly good. They are getting harder to find and all of them are old and worn out, so you need to get a rebuilt one. The Mallory unilite is probably the best solution. Its new, it has no worn parts or worn shafts that the two previous choices do have, so its a better choice overall. If you need an ljet or an 050 distributor, contact "Cap'n Crusty" on this board. He has a Porsche shop and he has/had a pretty decent selection of used distributors...not sure if he still does. The other person to check with is the Dell carb guy in Italy...he is awesome and probably has a few distributors laying around. Look up Dell carbs on Ebay, you will find him...he is in Italy (look at his "about me" page on ebay) Good luck. Rich |

QUOTE when fitted a 009 could fit? He asked if it would fit. It will fit. He could run it until he can get a proper dizzy. |
