    This is one of the posts that started me on the HEI thing.

    Thanks Max

    Because I have never been able to make a Lucas dizzy work anywhere near water, I'm not going to fit another Lucas product. I've had botha standard points dizzy and a lumenition modified dizzy in it, and deep puddles are enough to cause either to misfire.

    Round here, landcruisers with Chev V8 & HEI seem to cope with water a metre or more deep with no hassles at all.

    So - after reading this...

    And a few other websites, plus talking to two local RR owners, I decided on the Chev HEI.
