ELECTRONIC IGNITION KIT (V8, LUCAS TWIN CONTACT)

This kit replaces the twin contact points in the distributor with an electronic module. Contact breakers can become inefficient when wear in the distributor causes the shaft to oscillate, preventing a stable gap between the contacts. This causes an uneven spark between cylinders, resulting in "lumpy" engine running and poorer fuel economy. Electronic ignition is not affected by this, ensuring smoother running and enhanced economy. The kit is fully contained underneath the distributor cap, so the modification is unnoticeable.
