Ideal hot spare for aging Triumph engines

A good, easy replacement for aging Triumph V8 engines with old technology. Looks great on the shelf alongside the rest of the spare bits.

Pros
  • Valves
Cons
  • Compatibility

The cover was wrong.: Ignition and electrics

Dizzy was ok but the cover didn't fit properly. It is too small and can only be removed with brute force. But the way from Germany to the USA is long and expensive.

Pros
  • Power parts and accessories
Cons
  • There are nuances

Perfect replacement

Absolutely perfect except the wires need to be about 6 inches longer for my 1995 Land Rover. They sit alongside the standard distributor (with remote booster) and are almost identical. I removed the oil pump drive as my Rover has a crank driven oil pump. Vacuum conveying is even a Lucas "Made in England" block. The wiring was very simple, two wires going to the coil and that's it. What I want to know is how they can sell it for a little more than the cost of a standard vacuum cleaner. Get that,

Pros
  • Automotive
Cons
  • Negative impression

Immediate increase in performance without having to wait for the dizziness to recover. If you can still find a remanufacturer

Vehicle: 1988 Land Rover Defender 3.5L V8 Dual Carb Replacement: Lucas 35DLM (coil too - see other review) Easy. No more ballast or two pin ignition module. Built-in dizziness. Shaft with wd40 stayed, moved gear 30 degrees, made pump shaft stand at 10 and 4 o'clock, TDC on piston number one: caught fire immediately. Note: new work with V8. But after tearing up the top of this resto mod I did some more OT work and pulled the trigger to replace the Lucas block. Learned recovery and it took at…

Pros
  • Ignition & Electrical
Cons
  • Quality
