Hi, i found three Bosch V8 dizzies lying on a shelf in the shed and I'm curious to know which model car they came from so if anyone can help me with these numbers it would be appreciated

 

1. top number 9 230 063 825 / bottom number GMH 9938994

2. top number 9 200 063 834 / bottom number GMH 9946937

3. top number 9 230 063 834 / bottom number GMH 7434981

 

1 is 5.0L ADR27A, so HX and LX past 6/76 They changed HZ and VB a bit and the Bosch number changes so that the last 3 digits become 835. Not sure if A9X got HZ's dizzy.

2 is HZ and VB 4.2L, probably the last of LX 4.2L as well (post HZ release).

3 is HT to HJ, LH and LX pre 6/76 4.2L. Bosch number should be 9 230 063 800.

9 230 063 824 is HX and post 6/76 LX 4.2L used up until HZ release. It is the pre-decessor to your No.2 above.

 

If you find a 9 230 063 801 i'm interested, my HJ Premier is missing its original.

Thread bump!

 

I too just found an original Bosch 9 230 063 824 (9938993) points dizzy in my spare parts. It's the factory original unit from my old 253 LX Hatchback. Still in excellent condition. Before I sold that car many years ago I had removed this dizzy to convert to electronic ignition.

 

Just curious - what is this dizzy worth these days? I'm looking to move it on.

Prob not a heck of a lot? I believe the weights/springs would be different in a 253 dizzy to a 308? They are different part numbers between the pair. Would suit someone doing a correct resto, then piss the points off and fit a Pertronix module inside it.

Yeah I didn't think they would be overly desirable - but like you say - important for anyone doing an original resto. I just don't want to throw it away for next to nothing and then find out later they're actually sought after.

 

I'll throw it on ebay and see what happens. Cheers.

Or deal with the experts on Torana Whispers FB Page.

Not on FB personally so ebay it is!
