Default Re: 97 vs 94

Good information, Thom leads me to want a 94 but rotor shows it to be either impossible or at least not economically feasible

Consider the Stromberg 81, also available new. (Price shown is MSRP. There are a number of independent Stromberg dealers who will sell it to you almost at wholesale. Check around.)

I ran an original 81 on a hill climb, it ran very well but It went up the hill about 3/10ths of a second quicker with the bigger 97. For most touring either will work nicely.

It's neither impossible nor expensive to work with the 94s. The challenges are minimal and 94s are less expensive. A person just needs to know what to do and where to get what's needed. If you're unsure then get the 97s.
