Quick question, for carb conversion, is the 009 Bosch the recommended Distributor?
Isn't there two versions of that Distributor? Thanks Frank |

Replacing the cam on a t4 will do a lot for you with carbs. BUT.
Replacing the cam means that you have to split open the case. And that means a lot of work. Once the case is opened and you have the new cam, new cam bearings, etc, you may as well rebuild the entire motor. After all, its all open there. And after redoing all that work (including new pushrod geometry since you changed the cam) you may as well make sure that your heads are good, etc. etc. Zach |
