Hi,

Can a 2T distributor be used in a 2T-G without modifications?

Thanks in advance.

you can use an electronic dizzy in a 2t, so why not a points 2t dizzy in a 2tg ?

The Dizzy's are NOT the same.

You CANNOT use a 2T dizzy in a Carby 2TG, might get away with in in an EFI one but probably not. The fine adjustent dial fouls on the manifold preventing the correct timing adjustment/orientation of the dizzy. A 2TG dizzy does not have this dial and the shaft lengths are different to allow clearance.

So the short answer is NO it won't fit !

ive got a complete 2T unit and only a bare housing on a shaft with the cam on my 2TG one. can you transfer the 2T dizzy internals (weights, springs, points etc.) into a 2TG dizzy housing? im assuming you can, seeing as they are the same size in the critical dimentions.

Nice avatar Wink I haven't seen that engine for a while !

Not sure on swapping the internal. I can't see any real reason why it shouldn't work altho the weights and dizzy graph in a 2T will be different to a 2TG one due to the different Cam/reving characteristics. So you will need to have it regraphed Smile
