Has anyone out there got a spare distributor cap for a Lucas DVZ6A?

I am looking for the Horizontal version, listed as DVZH6A, just as long as its not cracked or chipped. I have found couple on ebay but they are over £100 just for the cap.

Second-hand will do me.

Can you pm me or message me on:

Just checked Green Spark Plug dizzy caps....they list the vertical-exit version, not the horizontal-exit....
They list a DVXH6A cap....at around £120 incl vat!

There's also Distributor Doctor?

Any on here that might do the job? If not,then one can only ask?

The horizontal one is also handed, so there are two options. One is clockwise rotation and the other is anti-clockwise rotation so the slots on the base are different.

For now I have gone with a top entry cap, Speedy Spares are supplying the cap. I will still look for an original replacement, Beaulieu is next month.
