Go for the VV71 grind. I have one in my carbed 164 with B30E head
and it is GREAT and very tractable. I live in a pretty hilly area and
if the engine is cold I have to go to second to climb a steep hill (3.31
rear end)starting from a sharp corner but usually make it in 3rd.
Although low speed perf is good you feel a definite "come on" at about
2500-3000 and from there it climbs really fast.
