In my search for a distributor the other day i came across this. I never new this thing existed, has anyone tried it out. i did a search and found a thread from 2006, and then nothing

if it is really soooo awesome, how come everyone dosn't have one?

advantages or disadvantages?

I was only able to find the "Flamethrower" distriobutors for Type-1 engines.

The main issue for me is that teeners with stock FI would lose the FI triggers that is part of the stock dizzy.

So either you would have to replace the FI system with something else, or go to carbatooters.

No fuel points in a 1.8 dizzy This would work for a 1.8.

"carbatooters"

No vacuum retard ability on this distributor, so it won't work with L-jet on a 1.8. The Cap'n

Maybe the 2:1 improvement will overshadow the lack of retard?

Has anyone tried this diz??

Yup, that's the one!

This looks like an 034 which doesn't really have the best advance curve for a 914 FI engine.

I noticed it mentioned the 010 I've also mentioned a few times, good luck finding one of those.

You're best to keep the stock 1.8 dizzy. I have carbs and will toss my 009 in the trash when I install my L-Jet 1.8 dizzy.

i got the dizzy to see if it would work, just before i started this thread. now that i recieved the dizzy, i see that it can not work with the l-jet setup properly. i am sending it back to the vendor. it was worth a try, it looks really cool

i did keep the pertronix coil i orderd with it and i am running that with the stock distributor with pertronix module inside.

and the weather is bueatiful

I've got a SVRA from Aircooled on my '74 with L-Jet. Works great. Very reasonable price as well.
