Brit part module sprint which rotor arm

#1 Post by cleverusername »

I want to go the Brit part route with the dizzy, I have an ambassador cap on order so it will fit. Do I use the normal Sprint rotor arm, or fit a different one if I do this?

You use a smaller one. It may be ambassador too but cant confirm that. Looks like a normal small lucas rotor ie mini etc

I use the Lucas 45D4 rotor arm in my Sprint dizzy under a 45D4 cap. The Britpart kit is designed for the 45D4 dizzy but works in the 44D4 dizzy the Sprint has.

Yes but this doesnt work with the Sprint manifold IIRC. You need the amby cap to turn the leads clear and I think this has a taller than mini rotor...

I too have used the Sprint dizzy like this with std min/spit cap but in an 8valve slant and not a Sprint.
