How does a Resolit centrifugal distributor advance curve compare to Bosch centrifugal distributor curves like in the 009, 010, 050, 019? If you had one would you use it instead of a 009?

I won an eBay auction for what I was led to believe was a Bosch 019 -- turned out it was a Resolit... as I understand it, they are Brazilian knock offs, but none of the Bosch parts fit the Resolit...

I sent it back for a refund... Bosch 019 for me...

I had a dist on my baja when I bought it, marked Apex Resolute or Resolution. Worked well considering what it was. I took it aprat and it is constructed internally like an 010 or 019 with the weight and spring style.

They are old aftermarket copies. The quality is nowhere as good as the Bosch. If you get it for free then you got a nice wheel chock.

Personally I would find a Bosch.
