> The new rotors have five significant design changes:
> 1.  The material out of which the body is molded contains less carbon

> 2.  The location of the rivet has been moved outboard, further away from

> 3.  The installed length of the rivet is shorter.
> 4.  There is no spring clip inside of the rotor to attract the spark;
> 5. crack or fail.

> I had to order 50 rotors to access the product.

> 1. Lucas equivalent LU 418726, which fits Lucas distributors 25D6, 22D6,

> (Big Healey six cylinder, Triumph TR250, TR6, many Jag six cylinders, Land
