Michael Moore has a lot of info on Rita ignitions, as well as some links to other sources of info, but I don't know if your question is answered there. If you haven't already looked, check it out at www.eurospares.com

I've tried to find the answer to this question, but I have drawn a blank.

The best people to ask would be either John Carpenter of Mistral Engineering in the UK, phone 020 8501 2161 (+44 20 8501 2161 from USA, I think?) who originally developed and marketed the Rita kits, or Dave Comeau: http://atlanticgreen.com/ignition.htm in the US.

I don't know if it's of any help, but my Triumph Trident T160 had the 47270A box fitted when I bought it (it now has a Tri-Spark ignition).

Hi
Just as an aside I have been told that Mistral have a new Rita. My friend has just fitted this to his Commando race bike.
