The "Bunny" is tired so I figure its time for a major overhaul. With regard to the oil burning problems, it is true that just replacing the valve guides is no permanent fix. Stick valve guides that is. I plan to use valve guides developed in California for VW engines used in Super Vee racing which will necessi- tate a complete valve job. However, I disagree with the person who said it would cost $500, unless he was quoting VW prices. If anyone would like to get info on these guides, give me a jingle.
