As I started final assembly of my 2.7 RS spec motor (S cams, RS P&C,2.7 crank), I found the mechanical advance dist cap is cracked. It's a Marelli and it was setup for a 2.0T. I have a 2.7 vac adv dist, a Bosch. Will this work? Am I better off with something else?

Engine was built on my 914/6 case, so call it a 2.0T circa 1969 (September!).

I have an offer of a 2.0 E distrubutor that has been rebuilt.

I would just re-use the 2.0, but the cap is cracked. And I think moving to a closer distributor would be the way to go.

Hmmm. Will the 2.7RS distributor fit my case...

How much you want for it (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge24.gif)

Serioursly though, can anyone confirm that a 2.7 distributor will not fit the 2.0T case?
