My Dad is exploring the possibility of a converting a 3.2 Motronic engine to Carbs. However, the problem is that the distributer is different. The only option seems to be to recurve the distributer. However, we have heard rumors that if you can find a distributer off a 2.7, you're set?
Any truth in this? Personal experiences? |
