BOB

THAT'S WHAT I DISLIKE ABOUT MODIFICATIONS.....THEY REQUIRE FIXES TO FIX
WHAT GOT SCREWED UP.  PERSONALLY I PREFER TO RUN THE ORIGINAL POINTS FOR
JUST THIS REASON. I HAVE A TACH FOR YOU RCAR AND MAY BE ABLE TO REVISE IT
SO IT WILL WORK CORRECTLY RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX.

10 VOLTS IS WHAT YOU WILL SEE COMING OUT OF THE DOWNSTREAM SIDE OF YOUR
VOLTAGE REGULATOR. THE VOLTAGE ACTUALLY VARIES IF YOU WATCH IT CLOSELY WITH
A GOOD VOLT METER.  I STILL DON'T LIKE THE REPORTS I HEAR ABOUT "THAT
SHOP".........

*Thank you for your enquiry for our parts and services. We offer the
highest-quality spare parts for the vintage Land -Rover. Our staff is
minuscule while the demand for rare and “unobtainable” parts for early
Land-Rovers is relentless. While your concern is important to us, our
ability to respond to each and every enquiry may be limited and stocks of
many items are critically low.. We are primarily a restoration-based
enterprise but when we have a surplus of a given  item, we are able to
offer excess stocks to our dedicated clients. If your need is urgent, we
encourage you to contact us by phone, in person. Leaving a message is
rarely effective, so we recommend direct contact. With many buildings full
of parts, it is not always easy to locate obscure items, and the process is
often time consuming. We hope you understand. Please
provide complete details of your exact model including year, wheelbase,
which side drive, engine, Country of origin, etc. When giving part numbers,
please also state the catalogue number (typically found on the front
cover).  We appreciate your understanding and will do all we can to help.*
