If you want to tune your engine, or you have an engine for which there is no standard distributor available.....the new 123\TUNE is the answer ! By connecting it to a computer, the end-user can easily adapt the 123\TUNE to fulfill even the most demanding requirements. The unit offers two sets of curves that can be selected by placing 12 Volt on a wire from the 123\TUNE.
( Handy, if you're driving on two different fuels, like regular fuel with LPG or with Ethanol )

Here are all the features offered :

rotation CW and CCW ( autodetect )
for 6 Volt and/or 12 Volt cars ( autodetect )
variable dwell constant current, fully autom. ( autodetect )
coil current protection time-out after 1 second ( autodetect )
spark-balancing: better than 0,5 degr. crankshaft
for positive and negative earthed cars ( 123\TUNE-8 is for neg.earth ONLY )
two centrifugal advance curves ( 500 to 8000 rpm )
two vacuum-advance and boost-retard curves ( 0 to 200 kPa or -30 inHg to +15 psi )
two MAP-start fields
two rev.limiters ( advanced random spark stealing )
real-time tuning under keyboard-control ( ideal for working on a rolling road )
rpm-stopwatch ( ideal for tuning using the road itself as a rolling road )
luxurious import-from-file and export-to-file ( curves can easily be exchanged over the internet )

electronic "dashboard" with:
temperature gauge ( selectable in degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit )
manifold pressure ( selectable in Bar or inches Hg / Psi )
rev. counter ( 0 to 8000 rpm crankshaft )
spark-energy gauge ( primary coil current )
total-advance gauge ( in degrees crankshaft )

Product Description

Rover V8 Timing Cover and Fittings
Timing Cover Identification (to 1994)
There are 2 main types of timing cover, fitted up to late 1994:
1. saloon/sports, as fitted to Rover saloons & Triumph TR8s.
2. 4x4, as fitted to Range Rovers and Land Rovers.

The saloon/sports version has a more compact water pump, mounted lower down for improved bonnet clearance. The  4x4 version has a water pump mounted higher up. In addition, the 4x4 timing cover usually has a mud shield to protect the front crank oil seal.
Both types will fit all versions of the engine (providing suitable ancillaries are available) and both types are further categorised as follows:
The timing cover fitted to early vehicles (prior to 1976) incorporates an oil pump gear-housing designed for the early, "short" oil pump gears (refer to Oil Pump).
Later timing covers have a deeper gear-housing, accommodating the longer pump gears used from the SD1 (1976) until the introduction of the crank-driven oil pump (late 1994 - see below). Although the two types of timing cover are interchangeable, the oil pump gears and distributor would also need to be changed.
If, however, uprating the early (pre 1976) oil pump is your intention, purchase Oil Pump Kit RB7480, which contains a spacer plate and longer gears, along with the correct distributor drive, designed specifically for the early timing cover. (RB7480 is not suitable for later timing covers, 1976 onwards).

Timing Cover Identification (1994 on)
The timing cover fitted to the Series 2 Range Rover is of an updated design, unsuitable for earlier models due to the fact that there is no provision for a distributor.
There is, however, an "intermediate" timing cover, fitted to late 3.9 and 4.2 models immediately prior to the introduction of the Series 2 Range Rover, which includes a combination of features from both types, such as the crank-driven oil pump and conventional distributor. Although this timing cover will fit earlier models, it can be considered as unsuitable, as the oil pump drive requires a "long-nose" crank, not fitted to earlier engines.
1994 on variations can easily be identified by the serpentine drive belt.
