KemicalX,
The ford laser guys thrashed this out a bit too. Couple of interesting points about
actually doing the SOHC for you. For us the maths still point to the BPT cause they
are so easy to get but for the US they aren't so some have done the conversion.
Also bear in mind the price I got quoted from SSS for just turbo and manifold was
$600. I will have a VJ20 for sale in couple of months for $200 if you could source
a manifold for around $50 off fordlaser you will be way infront of that.
