Can't remember where it is Steve, I think it connected to the distributor with a round plug, the unit itself is about 80mm square, and 10 mm or so thick.
Something like this:
Has anyone got an SD1 V8 Ignition amplifier kicking around & for sale?
I seem to remember from my V8 MGB, the one I need is folded in an aluminium heat sink.
Cheers.
Pete.

These dumb modules are pretty interchangeable a Vauxhall Cavalier one will work provided it is bolted to some alloy to provide a heat sink.

Ignore this post folks, BT & Coozer thanks for the responses.
This is my distributor, and reading further I'm best cutting the dizzy in two to drive the oil pump, and
going megajolt...
I've checked and don't have one anyway.
I'm going to just take the insides out the dizzy and leave the cap on..
