Are 1600 and 2000 Dizzys Interchangable?

Post by roadsterdude1600 »

Quick question: I am going through spare distributors to make sure I have reliable backups. Are 1600 and 2000 distributors interchangable if they have the same advance? I have a really good 2000 dizzy with 7.5 weights, is there any problem dropping that into a 1600? Cannot seem to find that exact topic. Guessing yes, but I don't like guessing. Thanks!

Yes, completely interchangeable.
