I think you could use a 125 / 130 / 140 because your buggy is lighter then a sedan. Do the Berg shafts like Shubee says and some stock rockers like Jim recommended. I like OEM 911 Porsche valve screws (the underside of the rocker has to be clearanced a bit on a bench grinder for the swivel to move fully). I had a look in Berg's old Technical Article book and here's what he had to say about 1.25:1 rockers on cams designed for 1.1:1 for what it's worth....

But it matters not to me as I bearly have a pot to piss in right now! He had a ton of cool parts, it would be good to see the sale and proceeds go to his family at least. |

Another old shool setup. The cam seems to be something as a w120. And it runs 14sec That should be a nice engine. |

Very cool seeing those scanned articles. Interesting hp figures qouted though... 185 hp on a 40 mm Weber with 32mm vents? And over 200 hp on a 39mm inlet valve! Those were the days! Got to get me a time machine and an empty suitcase |

well it looks like Gary H has an original Engle 130 (with lifters + cam gear) for me, he thought it would probably be best for a "Street motor" |
