Re: More Mk1 16v swap problems...

just as a thought... is there a company that makes a high rise hood for a
rocco??  I was just thinking that if you could find a hood that fit the roc,
but has the bubble in the side of it like the eagle talons do.  That would
look interseting.
sorry this probably much help to you.... but i couldn't resist.
