Hey Tim, I'm about to embark on the same rebuild for my dirt tracker, so far
I,m looking at ACL 3cc dish pistons, L20 head (still wondering about 280z
valves) I've scored a Reg Cook cam, but unfortunately I'm restricted to std
carb though I can do any thing to it, and I can use any fuel. I'd say the
head is where the most work will have to be done. By the way was some one
talking about welding the L20 head for gains? (Trev?). Anyway I look forward
to hearing how it goes.
Craig
