Sure is. I got it at a local parts place here in Austin for $140. Any local
Mallory dealer can order it. The Mallory PN# is 517.(that seems kind of
short compared to those bosch pn's!) Copy down the number off the side plate
on the dizzy for reference.

That Mallory unilite dizzy, is it an electronic conversion of the dual pints
duzzy ? I have the Mallory dual point dizzy, and would love to convert it to
electronic. If that is the case with yours, could you tell me what part and
where to obtain it ? I'd really apreciate it.
Thanks,
