Hello All, I need Help regarding my A12 distributor, its running breaker point system right now and distributor is in pretty bad shape, i want to switch over to Electronic Ignition, the Electronic Ignition conversion Kits are Way to Expensive where i live, i can easily buy a new distributor for the price, Problem: Don't know which distributor will match the shaft lenght and gear... Dont want to Modify until Necessary... any help would be greatly appreciated.. Thanks :)

Did you read the EI article? It answers your question. There are two distributors with the right shaft.

Nabeel, which A12 do you have? Is it a Premier 112?

A Premier is a brand of car. However I see you are in Pakistan so perhaps vehicle is a B310 Sunny?

The EI article lists different factory Datsun/Nissan distributors that will work. If the Pulsar or 1980s Sunny are common in your area, i would recommend the distributor from that.

The The EI article has links, photos, instructions, etc. Have you looked at it yet?

Click here -> E15 Electronic Distributor Swap

All you need to use it with an original B110 engine is a little flat plate like this:
