The case for buying a broken SMG has gotten quite interesting...
Was a great episode I thought, essentially the whole episode was about doing a manual conversion, but still found it interesting. That exhaust would have to go for me though.
Vanos rebuild DIY looks quite do-able.
Where are we watching this episode? No stream available on Kodi.
Plenty of repeats on the Discovery channel....Quote:

Our own MikeMurphy bidding this conversion ages ago!Quote:
