I have mine on the 81 and I love it, and am patiently waiting for the one to install on the 87.

I wont be going back!

Which has a US 86 engine!

I have been pleasantly surprised how smooth, and (but for Malcolm ) unremarkable all the installs so far have been.

Default Update
The belt is tracking true when viewed from the 'breather holes' and after a couple of hundred of Kms I'm beyond 4k rpm equates to 150 Kph.

The engine is smooth, quiet and very responsive. Out to the car show tomorrow throughthe Rockies where it may go WFO
