I need recommendations on a new distributor for a 1.7 original EFI rebuild.

Because the original distributor is an essential component of the D-jet system, only the original type will work. Using the same part number assures the mechanical and vacuum advance curves are correct for the engine. There are no available aftermarket units available, although I believe there have been efforts on the part of a couple of 914 enthusiasts to come up with an alternative to the stock distributor., in the form of crankshaft mounted DIS.
