Ed,
I know that there is a multitude of "trick" opr speed parts available
for Spits,
but to be honest with you, I am most familiar with the 6 cyl. engines.
Drop Mark Bradakis, our list operator, a line at mjb@cs.utah.edu
I think Mark races Spits and is really into it deeply. He should be
able to help you
out.
Also, Andy Mace is another good source. He's the "old pro" (sorry
Andy).
How about it guys??
Regards,
TonyR
