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<br> 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
