Or would you have an email address or phone number?

I was asking about new tickford valve springs when he recomended the other ones. new xr6 valve springs are actually better than the originals, and alot better than 15 year old worn originals i fitted new crow xr springs with a 1521a and the car ran fine, a little noisy up high revs, but never had problems, made 157rwkw 1521a isnt a monster cam, dont need doubles. |
