Careful on your dizzy choice Richie as when the crab was introduced over in America the nose of the camshaft was changed too. The crab can be retrofitted using an adaptor plate and distance piece to interface with the cam drive. The Lucas type are a direct replacement for the divers helmet and there is a postwar ford UK Lucas distributor which has a similar body to the wartime Lucas item but with moulded connectors for the plug leads.
