I'm trying to get hold of a Mk 2 cavalier dizzy, coil, and ignition module for my 16v redtop, I know they are getting rare to find in the scrappies now, anyone know the part numbers, so I can keep my eye out at the auto jumbles??
cheers, Greg

Best of luck with your hunt, i looked everywhere looking for mine. Mr G found his first look ill have a look see if there are any numbers on it, or ill try and post a pic here so at least you know it when you see it

I've been looking for a while too.

Think i've got someone ready to give me some tho

A westfield builder near me said he used a Polo Bosch distributor on his XE. Check them out, I haven't any reason to doubt him.

Seen the light Greg?

What happened to the Cozzy conversion?

I had to make a dizzy up out of two, to get mine running originally, as one had a bust casing but the right type drive, the other had the wrong drive/good casing.

Don't know about the Polo dizzys fitting the XE, but I also used a Polo amplifier for the sparks.

HTH Stu.

Hi Stu,
Definately seen the light!!
got a redtop engine , complete locally for £150 , ta very much e-bay!!, was worth e-mailing the bloke and offering cash under his nose!,
Had loads of hassle with the cossie , conversion, the valves were hitting the pistons, and required racing ones = loads of money!, so I flogged the head to a grasstracker for mega bucks!!.
any chance I can pop up and see your car?, take a few photos and pick ya brains a bit? before I start buying bits for it!, cheers , Greg

More than welcome mate. Sending my number via U2U...

greg,

always interested to see how other xe engined cars come along painted my block at the weekend and my crank/3kg flywheel and 7.25" clutch is off for balancing at the moment

Ned.

You think....

Good luck with the conversion though billy. Doing a BEC myself, but in addition to my other car.

Because no matter how good a BEC is, I still don't think I could be without my XE fix...

I know wot you meen stu, im gonna keep my xe setup and put it in a new project thats got a screen etc, the BEC is just gonna be a lowd toy that aint gonna be practical- but alot of 1up fun

Erm, back on track now, anybody know the part numbers? and what ignition modules can you use?, ta !
