BIG engine problem??
All the input is great, none of it pissed me, and unfortunately I do not
have a spare distributor, I'm after throwing 2 of them out because I
couldn't get a core for the distributor I bought to use with the a KS.
It is a 3a block with a TDi crank and a slight bore to get it to 2055cc, not
a true 2.1, but a bigger engine nonetheless. I'm using an 8v head, and I've
spun the cams 360* freely, without any interference.
No matter what the outcome, I'll post.
Thanks
