Try John Hastings john AT noslucas DOT com. It might take a day to hear back from him, but he has Lucas O plenty.

The Jaguar dealer I trade with has them under a factory # but says Lucas part # is unobtainium.

Chased down the 3K RPM ~total~ spark loss to....
....wait fer it.....
A compromised coil HT lead. Would pull like a mule on steroids right up to 3K then fall on its nose like someone cut its legs off. With a new 40Kv coil and new OEM Lucas dizzy cap it changed characteristics and moved up th' band to 3.5K. It has a new set o' plugs, only things left were the coil wire or the XR700 amp or pickup. But I reason'd either one of those wouldn't act like this. Thing ran FINE a few weeks ago when I drove it up from the shop and back (100 Mile round trip). Weird how things just disintegrate spontaneously. This wire set ain't that old.
Now it'll get turned over to the owner ~again~ and something ELSE will act th' goat. Thing sits static for months at a time, atrophy sets in.
