That's mighty nice of you, considering you can buy it at wholesale for $69.

The price has gone up a little since the page was made. Prices are always subject to change.

Did you look at the parts list? Will you feel comfortable changing the cam, timing set/cover? If so, you will be OK to do the conversion. If not, its "hard".
