That's what my dizzy has on the side of it.

Have been told it might be out of a Nissan but wasn't sure.

Has any one know what they are out of as I need a condenser for it.

Will post pics of it later today.

I remember being at the Muscle Car Masters quite a few years back and i was looking at dissy's in some of the mini's and noticed that a lot of them were using Scorcher Dissy's , so i asked one of the drivers
about them and he told me that they use Nissan points , someone that is a part of the race mini fraternity might be able to shed some more light on the subject.

GR told me he uses points in his race car! So they can't be as bad as people make out...

My Scorcher is electronic and uses Bosch parts. Performance Ignition Services in Melbourne make them and have been for decades, so all parts should be readily available.

Yep when they make a Scorcher dizzy they use Bosch parts. I got a little card with the parts numbers used in the particular dizzy in case I ever need spares.

http://performanceignition.com.au/ is the website for the company that makes them. Just around the corner from Link Automotive.
