Does the Petronix ignition for standard Lucas distributer fit the replacement ProLine brand?

Oooof.

Since RN doesn't divulge the manufacturer of the proline stuff, you can't reference back through the pertronix site. Call up RN and ask them. They ought to know.

Pulled Proline dizzy yesterday and indeed the Petronix electronic ignition for Original Lucas DOES NOT FIT Proline replacement. Thank You!

Maybe you have the wrong pertronix? Your new dist is most likely a 45D copy. You just need to know red or blue points. Then order the LU-143 for red, or LU-144 for blue. Here's good link with pics: http://www.vintageperformance.com/retrorockets/lucas.htm I bought my pertronix from the same link.
