OK - time to put a plan in place to get the target 122s going. As a refresher, the engine is coming out of the 1968 and going into the 1967. Since everything has to come out anyway I'm trying to touch it all once, which is to say only put it back in once I know it is ready for a long service life.

The engine is a B20 with no history, but she turns over well and has an even 160 across the board.

Question #1) Given that the engine has to come out is it worth getting new bottom end bearings put in?

Question #2) Is there a resource I should send the distributor off to for a rebuild? I have a great guy I use on the TRs, but wasn't sure if there was a specialist you guys like to recommend?

Question #3) The 1968 has a dual line brake system, the 1967 doesn't have a master cylinder at all. Should I move the dual line over?
