It does state " All mechanical advance with optimized advance curve etc etc"
Ask the vendor what the actual curve should be and if they will guarantee its accuracy. Compare it with the (correct) Lotus curve.
They can't all be junk surely? The ignition module itself looks virtually the same but 5 X the price!
I am considering a 123ignition, then I can experiment with my own curve. Especially when it has been on the dyno.

Anyone got experience of it?
Just fitted one today, but I ran out of time so didn't get it running. Two minor irritations so far, the o ring oil seal was too large and just wouldn't fit into the block and the new distributor clamp has to be tightened from both ends, the old original clamp has a square nut on one side that locks against the clamp body so the clamp can be tightened from one side only. The old clamp screw is too long to be used on the new clamp. If I have time to get it running tomorrow I'll post feedback.
