[DML] Re: Engine Conversions -- Carbureted PRV (Robert)

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

For those of you contemplating using the earlier incarnations of the
PRV engine, be aware of the potential problems they have with the
camshafts. All of the versions prior to the B28-F eventually have
problems with camshaft wear. Perhaps using a synthetic oil will help.
