Hey guys,

I find myself looking at a 1980 924 Euro car, is there anything different back the Euro cars (besides bumpers, lights) that I need to be aware of when ordering parts for the engine/trans? Any tid bits of advice?

Different distributor/ignition system, different pistons (higher compression).

Valve sizes may not be the same as US models. You need to check the size of your valves if replacing, before ordering.
