Looks like all the money Marc saved on doing the 4200 swap he is having to spend on fixing it every time he takes it on a trip. Ready to swap back to a 292 yet Marc.
ahhhhhh nope - that turbo never gave a hint of problems - someone suggested that a piece of the k&n broke off and went through the turbo.
If anything I'd put a ported head late 4200 in with a header and good exhaust..
The no reverse is weird - not even the trans shop I consulted had heard of a cocked band before and they have been around since 1970....
I call these teething problems, like anything else the further you go away from stock the more issues will crop up..
Annoyed - a bit - fead up to point of "enough" no. Stubborn possibly.
