    Hello all, firstly I've put this in the carbs section as it goes hand in hand with the Bike Carb conversion.

    Has anyone run the Lumenition Optical dizzy on a Mk2 Golf on here and how did it behave.

    I see @Jon Olds runs the fancier version of this?.

    I'm trying to go old school and simple with my restoration so the Lumenition looked a good bet (fit and forget?).

    Is it a Bosch distributior kit I need for my Mk2 16v?.

    Cheers all.

    Run one (or two 25+ years) fit and forget.
    You can get a mechanical advance curve to give you your 32 degrees (or whatever) with a four wire system
    to an amp.
    I have collected a box of similar stuff over the years, as it was obvious to me that this would eventually be hard to come by
    Pair 45's, big cams, more compression , ported head, tubular manifold, easy 200 or so bhp
