what linkage kit are you guys going with.
Phantom or nothing, that's the only part of the 911 style fans that I don't like......busy linkage spoiling the lines.

FFF the linkage are going to be at the back of the fan housing and out of the way
T---Z Phoned The agents today and must bring it in for sampling
But somwhere there will be one for the alty want to find it soon still got P/coating and paint to do
Allan orderd a C25 and a new set of barrels pistons a set of unitech rods with ARP rod bolts and ratio rockers with a new full flow oil pump at nearly the same price what a set of 92`s would have cost locally
Block is inn for checking for linearity and then we can go from there

No 
CIP all around R7K also bought a cam and uni tech rods for my 2.1WBX
THat is the rods you were refering to in a earlier post for under $200 actually $139 with ARP bolts $10 diferance between a set with out ARP bolts so pay the $10 extra
Say the rods cost me R1350 it is still better Quality than the stock WBX rod and to get a set of rods Crack tested shotpeened and replace the conrod bolts it would cost probably around there any way

Yea, I wanted to say $150, but was too lazy to look it up. I know the Scat rods have come down since I bought my first set....
So what is he doing with the barrels?

Dope... for some reason I thought he was going wasserboxer.....
82 crank for $835??? With imports and shipping I can land them for about $600
