who's got the biggest Rotors?

Who's got the largest rotors on their Vair?

Re: 6 port EFI intake runner

Scott,
thanks for a speedy answer.

Nick,
good call on the radiator for the turbo. Do you think one of the aftermarket straight line-heat sink trans coolers would do the trick?

Re: 140 valve seats

Does anyone here know of a shop in the greater Vancouver,BC area that can install Deep Seats?
