123/GB-6-R-V for 6 cylinder Lucas distributor
The 123/GB-6-R-V replaces most Lucas-distributors for engines in British (hence 'GB') cars with a 6 cylinder engine (negative ground only).
The 123/GB-6-R-V distributor replaces most 6 cylinder Lucas-distributors
The unit offers 16 different advance-curves, which can be selected by means of a small switch. This is a great feature to easily fine-tune your engine!
Features of the 123ignition 123/GB-6-R-V

Please note the following about the 123/GB-6-R-V
We strongly advise you to check the dimensions of the 123/GB with the original distributor.
The 123/GB-6-R-V is a 123ignition that has vacuum advance. If you do not need this, you can order this distributor: 123/GB-6-R.
Please read the installation manual carefully. It contains more information about static timing and the advance-curves (often found on the last page), the specifications of the 123ignition and a step-by-step description of the installation procedure.
Coils and spark plugs
Although used coils all look alike, they should be viewed with suspicion since one cannot tell from the outside whether, and how often they were exposed to overheating in the past. Installing the 123ignition system will ensure that the coil will never overheat again in the future. We recommend our 123 Red Coil.
Perhaps you'll also need new spark plugs? At 123ignitionshop we have recently added the spark plugs most commonly used in addition to the 123ignitions we offer. See: the spark plugs list.
