Distributor Refurbishment

#1 Post by David Embery »

Hi

Can anyone recommend a firm to refurbish my distributor for my Dolomite 1850?

Preferably looking for a firm located within the West Midlands/Shropshire area.

Thanks :D

RobSport do a recon exchange service for £240, plus a £50 surcharge.
Couldn't see the AC Delco D302 mentioned on the distributor doctors website.
1978 Twilight Purple Dolomite 1850HL The Lolomite.
It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.
Hit it.

+1 for H&H, they did my 1500 dizzy for my "fast road spec" engine. According to the tuner at the rolling road they got the ignition curves pretty much spot on for the engine.

Thanks Guys.

Really appreciate your suggestions. I have indeed gone to H&H Ignition Solutions in Brierley Hill. Should be back in about 10 days and just in time for when my reconditioned 1850 engine gets put back in my Dolly.

Fingers crossed, everything coming together nicely. :D

Sorry, yes they only do Lucas dizzys, I didn`t realise that the 1850 was AC Delco.
