Alistair, Chillwell 63/63 (U.C book)shows the Lucas distributor with in line H.T. supressors about 2 inches from the cap.
BTW. The same book identifies different coloured leads;
Red 1+5
blue 2+7
green 3+8
yellow 4+6
The coil and filter box are together mounted on a bracket bolted to the front of the LH cylinder head.
Having read this far I now see that all the above, applies to British (Lucas) set up
The Divers helmet type is wire differently;
red 1+5
blue 2+6
green 3+7
yellow 4+8
These distributors also have the in line suppressors under the rubber boots.

These ht leads have a braided outer that is varnished.
At the time of printing (jan 43) the Crab dizzy hadn't made its way across the Atlantic and into print.

BTW. I am looking for rotors for the lucas dizzy.
