[s-cars] Valve Job Anyone?

[Mihnea Cotet]

Peter, no idea about the prices as the exchange rates suck for the moment...

BUT, IMO you won't need beefier rods for RS2 power....

And regarding the distributor, you won't need to go to "solid state" (stock 
3B IS solid state already BTW), I should be starting to work soon enough 
with a fellow 200q20v lister on a 5 coil upgrade kit for the 3Bs where you 
can retain the stock 3B ECU...

HTH,

Mihnea
