Does anyone have a spare beetle distributor lying around that they can take some measurements from for me?
Please view the picture.
I need the diameter of the dizzy shaft that fits into the case
and also the dimensions of the O-ring groove.

Thanks IMPI
Exactly what I needed.
Like the doos I can be...
I forgot to ask for the diameter of the part the clamp fits onto.
Could someone also measure that for me?
This is really appreciated.
Now to start scrounging for material onboard...

The clamp takes the last 2mm from the top so the dia is still 27
from the end of the tang the total length is 41mm

Thanks Armand
Sitting in the Suez canal now, so measurements are a little hard to make.
Appreciate the effort.
