Rimmer Pt no: RTC1496 RFTC314 http://www.rimmerbros.co.uk/Item--i-GRID008512 Needed to fit Sprint disy to standard TR7 block (I think) Or a sketch with dimensions.

BlueTR3A-5EKT Posted December 11, 2015 Report Share Posted December 11, 2015 Peter - You are asking for the RTC1496 which is the plate inside the distributor. The distributor to block plate is RTC314 Sorry can not help with the part or a drawing - It looks like a regular Lucas distributor mount plate with turned up edges that are tapped to accept the flat Lucas distributor mount plate from a Sprint. Unique I guess as it spaces out the tapped holes in the block to accept the mount plate of a Lucas distributor, and it jacks the distributor up a touch. - probably by the thickness of the TR7 AC Delco distributor mount flange.

Peter W Pete, Many thanks, my brain fade. Found a photo: http://s1040.photobucket.com/user/dursleyman/media/TR7%20stuff/Sprint%20Engine/IMG_0058-Optimized_zpsjngayiy1.jpg.html It looks exactly as you say,and I can get the thickness of the photo. cheers Peter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
