Mark,
Your Lucas electronic dizzy. Does it have a big rectangular box attached
to the side of it? If so, this is the Lucas OPUS unit, fitted standard
to all North American RB Midgets There should be a stamping of "45DE4"
somewhere on the dizzy.
Or is there a remote black box that is mounted on the pedal box? This is
the Lucas CEI system, a recall replacement for failing OPUS units. The
dizzy will have "45DM4" stamped on the side.
Your points dizzy is probably a 25D4, or maybe a 45D4. Again, check the
stamping on the side.
HTH!

Subject: Re: Crane 700 ign-help a brother out?
Oh the joys of making one car out of two and a bunch of aftermarket
stuff! Boy is it ever going to be tough to figure out what the problem
is when it doesn't start!
Anywho, if someone could help a brother out I'd really appreciate it. I
have two stock distributors to start with, one seems pretty clearly to
be a Lucas EID distributor and the other is Lucas but has points. My car
is a 75 1500 so I think the EID is basically correct and I guess I'd
like to use it to start my 700 conversion with, but feel free to change
my mind. My basic question, and i know it's stupid, has to do with the
fact I can't tell which example to use in the XR700 instructions. They
list domestic 4-6-8, universal 4-6-8, marelli, bosch hall, bosch
magnetic, hitachi, noppondenso, lucas opus, mallory yl, mallory unilite.
Obviously lucas opus has the attraction of saying lucas in the name, but
doesn't exactly remind me of what I've got. Any thoughts on which to use
or a source of relevant instructions?
Thanks, Mark M.
