Marelli Re-build Kit
Given the rising cost & scarcity a of a Bosch compatible distributor for a 2.2L (1970) engine;
is a re-build kit offered by "Parts*******" for a Marelli S112BX a viable alternative?
Does anyone have any experience with this kit?
I have searched for the 'normally recommended' Bosch substitute but am facing a rather large
purchase price of a used unit which will not include added costs of shipping, refurbishment
& any machining necessary for the conversion.
I also face a double whammy in that I pay in 'canuck bucks' plus the usual
ridiculous shipping & tax charges we incur north of the 49th. The Marelli I
currently have seems in reasonable & re-buildable condition & the kit in
question may/should suffice.
I would gladly buy from our host if this kit was offered & said kit would be thusly vetted.
Any advice will be appreciated. Thanks in advance
Cheers
JB
