[T3] Mark 10 (was RE: Stock cylinder kits)

Mon Aug 20 18:21:41 PDT 2012

Kieth, thank you for the help.

I just remembered you gave out a daily driver worksheet. Can you please send  
me another copy? I am shipping the Squareback to Arizona for a daily driver.  
I am going to assume I have to go through it again.

Thank you!
Adriel

If I can work out the minor missing and idle issues, yes, Id recommend the
Mark 10.  If you go cruise, you probably will NEED it.  It's a quality unit,
meant to last unlike the Pertronix which sometimes don't fit well and often
fail in a couple years.

I think the last Cruise I got for the Notch was a Rostra unit,  There's a
guy there named Joe that was very knowledgeable in them and the guy to talk
to about which of their units is best for you.  Ill try and dig out his full
name.

Keith, so then you would recommend a Mark 10?

Would you recommend the cruise that you have and if so, which one is it?

Thank you,
Adriel

No difference that I could see, Today they have fully electronic units that
don't use vacuum, they do tend to be more sensitive to noise but the one I
have on the Notchback is OK and that doesn't have the Mark 10.

So how does this affect combustion and mileage? I was going to get one, but 
now have to pay for shipping the Squareback to Arizona to be a daily driver.

Good to know, as if I am going to take the Squareback to the next Invasion 
(doubt it with the way it acts) I would have to have cruise control. My torn
tendon in my foot/ankle is only getting worse.

Thank you,
Adriel
