Re: Anyone have a ABA block in the rocco?

I think the other major thingy is the distributor. To
use an earlier (CIS) distributor there are issues with
the intermediate shaft and an adapter ring is
supposedly required for the distr. also.

One other thing, you may not be able to have a timing
belt cover . . . 

I've been considering this for my '82 for some time. 

This place sells some of the required goodies - I
wonder if Potterman can get any of this stuff? (I'll
ask him directly eventually).

http://www.fastforward.ca/   (anybody know anything
about this place?)

The only clearance probs I've heard of using CIS is
that the throttle cable is really close to the upper
stress bar (assuming you use one).
