Thumbs up '75 FI, Isky/Norris valve train and Perlux ignition trigger

Gil said the European Fuel Injection was much better and the 75 will probably leave me stranded on the road some day! So maybe I'll sell the 75 fuel injection parts I have, rather than try to get what I need from Opels Unreachable (Unlimited).

All in all, probably just a better deal all the way around than to rebuild the 1.9 to a 2.0 since I have an automatic trans. and need the torque.

MY experience would definitely belie that! I CAN tell you that my reliability is due in part to the EFI and in part to the Perlux (Pertronix) ignition trigger! Have NEVER been stranded or had ANY on-road problems with this GT, even with flat tops and an Isky/Norris valve train.
