Hi.

I am just read a thread about an in head distributor replacement for TC and decided to make a thread about original in head Magnetti Marelli distributor.

I have a MM SM801AX for my TC.

GC, could you share with us your usually way for overhauling and modifying of original distributors ? What is a necessary to do with it to get a reliable distributor ?

I don't want to use a modern distributor, I want to have and old fashion engine, so SM801 is the only distributor that I can to use :-)

Thanks.
Piotrek.

I was convinced that you overhauled a tons of this type of distributors, but I was wrong :)

I done a normal inspection without any mods and I will use it in my engine. It looks that if GC hasn't done any mods in this distributors it is not neccesary to do any mods in this parts.

Thanks.
