My feeble mind has a memory of using an MGA Twincam distributor
point plate. My old local Brit part shop got it for me. I think that the
twin cam dizzy had no vac advance and the point plate was a simple
one-piece deal that did not need to bve soldered up to obtain
stability. I never took the motor over 6200 and had great power
at that speed so spark scatter was probably not a big deal.
at least to that speed.
did not have a dizzy machine then so never tested it. Sure wish i had
one back then tho (got two of 'em now) as it would have helped
avoid melting a new set of forged venolias.
anybody else remember the dist plate i am talking about? i have all
the old Lucas books from my old vendor and cannot find any reference to
a special plate. ditto my MGA manual.
remember reading an old write up about the Bartz Chevys of '67 and the
article
claimed that they were using single point dizzies.
