engine parts suppliers



Apart from Potter, there is Mike & Dave at www.germanautoparts.com.
They helped alot when I re-did my 2L 16v. It really depends on which side of 
the country your on.
Mikes a westie and Mike & Dave are on the east side.

>Hi All,

>2. Which cam?
>3. Suggestions for higher flow catalyst?
