    Still miss my little 308, good to see the forum is still active.

    Can someone with a spare dizzy cap measure the diameter of the carbon pin/conductor? Thank you in advance

    Hi Geno,

    If you just need the measurements, I can do that later today. If you are trying to match the pin to another suitable replacement, I have about 50 varied Bosch distributor caps from an inventory I bought years ago (with some blue and red coils!). I can see if any of them match a 308 pin and send it to you. No charge of course.

    How are the Lambo's doing? You miss the 308 because you had one of the most beautiful ones!

    Thanks guys, loving the lambo's but missing the 308, she was a beauty and easy to own comparatively.

    The V12 distributor cap is $1,600. I broke the carbon element, but the rest of the cap is good. I know i can go to napa and likely find an element, but I thought at one point the carbon element was the same in the 308, just looking to verify. I think its 6mm

    thank you, perfect that will work.

    if anyone has a old spent cap that wants to donate a carbon tip please let me know. Will figure out some sort of compensation.

    I've still got a couple old caps sitting around. Had no idea the carbon button was so expensive. I can check tonight when I get home if you'd like. If I do you can have it. Since I also don't have a 308 any longer I have no need for it.
