TPI dizzy, T5 reverse plug

I would like to find a dizzy that is FOR SURE originally from a TPI motor (small cap) that had a factory roller cam. I have heard stories back and forth about people getting away with running a standard small cap dizzy in a roller cam motor, but I don't want to take the chance of the cam gear getting trashed and sending fragments all through my motor (87 L98 w/89 roller cam).
I also need the reverse light plug (two prong plug) for an 89 WC T5 which would include at least 6" tails.
Price for either/or/both shipped to zip 16401
Pics would be a plus to ronlogan@roadrunner.com
Prefer Pay-Pal as a payment method.
Thanks.

Re: TPI dizzy, T5 reverse plug

I think I will just buy a bronze gear and put it on one of the many small cap dizzys I already have.
I would still like to find a plug, but I'm ot going to spend very much on one. So if anyone has one for a GREAT price, let me know.

Re: TPI dizzy, T5 reverse plug

hear is the plug I have the left prong has an indexing slot straight up and the right one has one pointing to the left or center. If it looks right I'd take 5 bucks shipped.

Plug for reverse switch pending shipment.
If anyone decides they want to sell a TPI small cap dizzy that was positively from a TPI/roller cam engine for a great deal feel free to PM me with a price.
