How do the Vanderval last? I have been told they tend not to last as long!!!


No idea if this is true

Turboing minis since '89
Supercharging minis since '04

vandervell as do rover ,use lead indium and reticular tin materials, the tin typ are harder and if the crank touches it usually picks up more , i've used both with no real downsides to either in race or road engines
