Hi Bob. Yes Mr. Jordan is correct. The spray bar is a different unit. I can
also see why some people overlook this. The gears fit on both shafts. I had
the GTS shaft altered (modified) to accomodate these differences . I got it
back not a couple hours now. It has just passed all the preliminary tests &
got the green light for a more permanent installation. Yes, on the pistons
as well. I will be fitting a set of JE 1.5mm oversize. They also have a
higher dome & are listed to bump compression up to 12:1. Ditto on the
porting of the cylinder head & any internal overcastings will also be
removed. Peter Piazza
