    Nice interview. I think the 16v single cam has every weaknesses in all the Suzuki. Too many moving parts on such a small engine. I like the tween cam 16 valve, I’ve owned several single cam with 16V all turned out bad compression, leaking and burning oil, could not pass smog and loss of power, cam shaft scratched. Now I stick with the 8V 1.6L engine and sidekick flywheel and 4x4 manuel transmission connected to Samurai T-case, cut off the sidekick T-case chain patched with aluminum plate add 4.24:1 T-case gear connect to Samurai 6.5:1 this setup is extremely low for the Samurai. See my setup Ron, just want to help bridge ideas for all Samurai owners out there. Great interview video.
    Hope to see you Samurai guys on the trails sometime.
