For those in the position of having a non-functional or failing distributor there is an alternative.
I ran into this issue while building a stock 2.0 motor for my car- while trying to source parts for what I thought was a functional stock distributor.
The link is here for information: http://123ignitionusa.com.
I talked to Ed ......he is based in Ohio and he said he would do group buy discounts if others were interested.

Details:

914 models are available in the following configurations:
1. Hardcoded advance curves with no vacuum, no bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet. Will work with engines that have carbs, L-Jet or aftermarket FI. Will not work with D-Jet.
2. Hardcoded advance curves with vacuum, no bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet Will work with engines that have carbs, L-Jet or aftermarket FI. Will not work with D-Jet.
3. Hardcoded advance curves with no vacuum, no bluetooth, with output for D-Jet This is the unit to choose for stock D-Jet users.
4. Custom bluetooth tunable advance curves with vacuum, with bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet. This is the best unit for carbs, L-Jet, aftermarket FI
5. Custom laptop tunable advance curves with vacuum, no bluetooth, with no output for D-Jet. Will work with engines that have carbs, L-Jet or aftermarket FI. Will not work with D-Jet.

Coupon Code to use at checkout is: 914world
Group Buy discount is 10% off retail on any product I offer. If there are more than 10 orders the discount becomes 15% and the additional 5% will be refunded to the cc of the first ten orders.
This group buy is for shipping to any address Con US.

The group buy will run for three weeks and orders will all ship 7-10 days after the close (Nov 10).
Place all orders NOW using the coupon code, and that puts you 'on the list' but your part won't ship until mid-November.



I.ll keep the thread bumped for a couple of weeks to measure or collect interest.

Rob

10-22-2017 Edit: -Rob

Here is the confirmed ...by me....orders that we have. Mark D. (McMark) was kind enough to edit some clarifications for the type of Dizzy to get. You are ultimately responsible...that way we all learn at least something. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

Here is the count I have:

TJB/914 -1
914_teener-1
Philip W.-1
pvollma-1

Amphicar770-1

BeatNavy-1
nditiz1-1

CMONNETT-1

Bsherrard-1

olsib914-1

pete000-1 ( Met Pete at Luftenkult) I'll vouch for him.

Morrie-1


I count 12 if for interest only, so if true that would be 15% discount off list. This will be great comparing notes on performance.

Guys,

Although I'm not in need of one now, I do have a lot of experience with this particular distributor setup in my e10 and they are well worth the money.

They are programmable, exceptionally well made, blue-tooth compatible and bring a night-and-day noticeable difference to your motor.

If you're on the fence, I would highly recommend you take the step. If you hadn't thought about it yet, I would highly recommend you take the step.

It's money well spent.

Mike

One key feature with these is they replace the old school NLA fuel injection trigger points with an electric pulse. Way more modern and consistent signal.

Also the Bluetooth version can be set to require a code before it will allow the car to be started. A cool security feature.

I have been wanting one for a while now and will commit to the group buy for sure.

Jump on board everyone! Read the reviews from other cars /engines too. This is a killer set up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)

I am interested in a D-Jet unit, and possibly a BT unit for my 912.

Sorry to be thick, but I just want to be clear: the one that's D-Jet compatible is NOT Bluetooth programmable, correct? You can select from a number of pre-programmed advance curves (looks like 10 of the 16 apply to 914), but it doesn't work with Bluetooth. I guess the Bluetooth-programmable one is for non D-Jet (I assume because of the trigger points).

Someone please correct me if I've got this wrong. I'm interested, but want to make sure I understand.

Thanks for putting this together, Rob.

Rob,

My understanding of the Bluetooth app is that you can see the data on your laptop and or mobile device.

The D-jet version of thier distributor edit: There is only one choice: Switched. The blue tooth version is not available for Djet.

On their D-jet version there are aprox 20 preprogramed curves. The bluetooth capability allows you to observe the advance curve in relationship to other engine metrics. There is a You Tube of his posted. I am not sure if this is extra....again...I.ll ask.

I have a call into him just now.

I.ll update the first page tonight with the interested members and models...depending on his answers... after the Dodgers win the NLCS.

Hello Guys
I talked to Rob and starting Monday October 23rd, and for three weeks you can use the coupon code
914world
It will expire November 10 and be good for 10% off retail on any product I offer. When the amount of orders reaches 10 then the discount becomes 15% off retail. When that happens the additional 5% will be refunded to the cc of the first ten orders.
Orders will be filled 7-10 after the close of the 3 week period.

Hope this helps
Ed

I'd be interested in the one appropriate for a carbed (and with Webcam) engine. Not sure which one that is other than one not for the FI...


Also, curious if they are a larger diameter like the Mallory- I had to modify the sheetmetal on my '71 to get it to fit.

Obviously I.ve asked Ed to speak for this as i am only interested in the D-jet model.

All models that he offers are applicable to the group buy according to Ed and as long as he has a head count by Monday we are good to go. and any questions can be addressed to Ed.

I.ll keep the thread bumped if neccesarry for the next three weeks.
