[urq] Distributor Cap

[Michael Hopton]

Thanks Ingo,

But no I don't need any of the spark plug connections, I just need
the hall sensor function and want a cover for the plug pick ups. 
This is for a 3B head with coil on plug, i.e. no front mount for 
the hall sender.
Cheers, Mike

Mike,

You mean the 3B engine, right?  It's a two-part distributor cap,  
similar to what's used on the early ('89-94) V8's.  You MIGHT be able  
to take one off of a 3B cap and move it to the WX, but I'm not sure.   
Only problem with these is they "hide" arcing or cracks within the  
cap itself -- especially when moisture gets between the two "shield"  
and the cap.
