Default Re: UnderPressure help with 7a turbo

My conversion was done by the previous owner but it's based on a 7A block and head. The bore is different between the 3B and 7A so there would be a fair bit of work to get that to match and gasketed. I'm not sure about piston to valve clearance either. Maybe someone else who is more familiar with the details of 3B vs 7A can chime in.
