Options for replacing fuel distributor
I may need a new fuel dist. Anybody have a line on replacements or rebuilds? I would like to buy one outright and keep my original. It's to go into a 1981 Euro 930. I heard there's a Mercedes direct replacement one. Anybody know anything about it?

what sort of "enrichments" can be done on these distributors? is there some guideline they go by based on what mods have been done or do they just increase the fuel flow?

Stephen of IA did some modded USA fuel heads that flowed lots of fuel. Some people found they actually flowed too much fuel so my advice would be to try a stock black euro head and only then if you can't get enough fuel go for a modded USA head from Stephen. A Brian Leask WUR and RPM switch will help you to get your AFR's where you want them if a euro head doesn't do it for you.
So, euro head, WUR, RPM switch & finally modded USA head. Take each step at a time in that order and see what happens to your AFR's.
