Where was this dizzy originally fitted? It has a vacuum advancer and looks just like the 010,019 and other dizzy's that is the cast iron type... Can it be used to become just a centrifugal type.. Even the internals look like a 010...

Never seen one before.

It's a aftermarket unit made by Bosch in Brazil. Just because it "looks" like a 010, doesn't make it works like one. VW, Porsche, Alfa, BMW and Mercedes mechanical distributors all look a like at first glance. But when you examine the parts you can quickly see that are quite different.

It's like looking at the parts in a Type 1, Type 4 and 356 engine and thinking they are the same.
