Right Angle Distributor
I need to get hold of a right angled distributor cap for my Pinto ignition.
I am convinced that I have heard or read somewhere that a Peugeot one fits the Ford Bosch distributor.
Any body know the part number, or am I talking or thinking c**p
Cheers in advance,
The Baron

I believe its a Motorcraft Fiat part for a X-flow, guess the Pinto dizzy might be the same. Don't have a part number I'm afraid.
Have a look at Rusty Nuts post here

Right Angle Distributor Cap.
For use on distributors which normally use a DDB442 straight distributor cap as standard.
This includes all x-flow and pinto Bosch applications & the later smaller diameter CVH bosch distributors.
Typical applications are on x-flow engines so that the leads clear 40s or 45s

The Ford distributor is lower than the Bosch. Also there are different flavours of twin carb manifolds so depending o nthe angle of the manifold, you
may get away with Ford.
I have 1300 crossflow so lose 1 inch yet managed to fit the leads under the manifold using the smaller lead insulators plus a bit of filing in the
manifold rib. Silicone leads are more bendy than copper cored ones too.
Check to see if you have a problem before shelling out.
