I'll second that on Marcos injectors and lifters. They completely transformed my 86 Syncro 2.1. Idles very smooth. Comes off idle quicker and stronger. More power up hills and getting a little better gas milage. 17 vs 16. 
Thank you all for the list. I do also use FBook for info. You just have to know where to go and when to ignore a site. Easily done in notifications. 

Thanks
Bob
