Can anyone recommend a place in San Jose for Lotus (Esprit) parts?

I'm looking specifically for a rotor for a 1979 Esprit S2.  The
electronic ignition kit being installed doesn't quite clear
the unusual rotor.

This rotor, by the way, has some type of spring-load device that
governs maximum revs (?).  It is marked 3500 RPM, implying that 
it shorts out the high-tension (preventing overrev), but the 
RPM figure sounds low to me.  Will someone please explain what this
really does?

Thanks,

Eddie
