Replace your worn out points style vacuum advance distributor with this high quality electronic ignition SVDA unit from EMPI. These distributors feature electronic ignition which takes the place of points. This eliminates point adjustment and allows for a smoother running engine. This unit uses an aftermarket VW SVDA distributor housing, which means that factory cap and rotors are retained for easy servicing.
This unit is a Single Vacuum Dual Advance distributor which works well with stock single carb applications.
This distributor has a large heat sink on the side which does not allow it to fit in Type 4 engines.
Please note: These distributors require a coil with greater than 3.0 ohms of resistance. A coil with less resistance will cause the internal electronics to overheat and fail. Compatible coils include the Bosch Blue coil, Beru Blue coil and Pertronix 3.0 ohm Flame Thrower.
