Pete,
The best think you can do regarding british distributors is contact Jeff at
Advanced Distributors. His rebuilds cost around $120 and it will be better than
anything you can buy new or rebuilt by someone else. Just check out his
customer testimonials on the website. Jeff did mine to a jewel like quality and
installed Pertronix for If I remember correctly, around $200.

Subject: Re: [TR] Distributor help UPDATE
When all else fails, go back to the beginning and look at basics. Following
that advise I took a minute and checked the engine SN only to find out that it
is a TR4 engine. Must have been changed before my time years ago. Anyway that
at least explains why it has a D25 distributor. Still no idea why the unusual
distributor number. I did clean off the vacuum advance and found the part #
54411233 and advance numbers 5-11-7. TRF has a part with the same numbers but a
different part # for a TR distributor. Now my dilemma.
Do I purchase the unit, roughly $70, purchase a brand new distributor from them
for roughly $100 (sure it is a knock off of unknown quality), or pick up the
correct rebuilt distributor for around $200.
Thanks for the inputs so far.
Pete
