Hi,
I need a new distributor for my 3.8 but they seem thin on the ground or require a swap. Anyone know where I could get one? I will stick in the wanted section if realistic.
Thanks

Or try the distributor doctor. Think he also has a stash of old stock items that can be reconditioned and supplied as needed. Early 3.8 cars had the DMBZ6A type. Lucas no 40617....
Www.distributordoctor.com
And here too...
http://www.retroclassiccarparts.com/jag ... utor-40617
They do show up on eBay fairly regularly too....

Hi Gareth
Retro classic car did a very good job for me.
I sent Colin a NOS Lucas 41010A.
He convert it to a 40887 and re-stamp it.
Great job and "normal" price !
Also very good communication, I recommend warmly!
