The Powerspark 45D4 & 45D6 Lucas distributor ignition kit and powermax red rotor arm are a superb pairing giving increased durability and performance. Usually fitted to Aston Martins, Austin Healeys, Austins, Daimler’s, Jaguars, Mg’s, Triumphs, Minis, Hillmans and many more please refer to distributor casting number to ensure correct fitment.
We recommend using silicon HT leads with electronic ignition ONLY
Using copper HT leads without resistors can cause premature failures to any electronic ignition and this can void your warranty.
