Changing my Dizzys Reply #1 – January 07, 2007, 05:26:26 PM Also before anyone asks, the newer rotor doesn't fit the dizzy on teh car. I tried but it just doesn't work Quote Selected
Changing my Dizzys Reply #2 – January 07, 2007, 06:25:37 PM well if your original dizzy has that big fat plug on it too then id think you could just yank the old one and put in the new one. does it have the plug? there could be other differences too, wait for some other opinions. Quote Selected
Changing my Dizzys Reply #3 – January 07, 2007, 06:29:33 PM I believe its a direct swap Quote Selected
Changing my Dizzys Reply #4 – January 07, 2007, 06:53:29 PM It's a direct swap.Mine had the one with the bigger rotor,and I swapped it for a different one like the one I sent you.Now I have the H.O,but it swapped right over with no worries.P.S.,Did you see my birthday message? Quote Selected
Changing my Dizzys Reply #5 – January 07, 2007, 11:21:08 PM Yeah Vinnie, I saw it. But don't you have to, when going from one to the other, have to rotate the rotor 180 or something like that? Or just pull and drop in? Quote Selected
Changing my Dizzys Reply #6 – January 07, 2007, 11:51:39 PM Note the location of the rotor on the old one,and put the new one in the same spot. Quote Selected

Changing my Dizzys Reply #10 – January 08, 2007, 08:21:09 PM Just finished. You can feel the difference it made in the car. Really can't explane it. It just runs better. Quote Selected
Changing my Dizzys Reply #11 – January 08, 2007, 09:24:59 PM plug and play,,im hoping you marked the rotor to the dizzy and the base of the dizzy to the intake with a marker or sumthin,, anyway, congrads on the swap. I was just hoping you were not a tooth off either way.now you get to take apart the old one and get the pickup out. save it for a spare as well as the TFI. Quote Selected
Changing my Dizzys Reply #12 – January 08, 2007, 09:36:53 PM Lets say I was one tooth off, how bad and whats the fix? It feels different but not really good or bad. I marked it with sharpie, noted where the rotor was, removed, lined up, dropped in then started and gustimaed my timing. Start fine, timing is off but other then that it *seens* ok. Still, it's night and day difference in how it runs. Quote Selected
