Jim,
Thanks for the link.  My 1.9 is running good but if I see a 2.1 motor available I might snap it up.  I thought the exhaust headers would need to be modified.  I have the S&S headers on my van and if I recall they sell a different set for the 2.1 motors.  Doesn't the longer stroke put the heads (and exhaust ports) further apart?
Thanks again,
George
