The conversion kit is OK, but its a bandaid. If you're planning on making much more than stock HP or revving the engine more than once in a blue moon, I'd recommend against it. Its just not very stable compared to good 3/8 or 7/16 studs. For the $125, your machine shop ought to be able to do the machine work then you'd only have to cover the cost of guideplate and pushrods. Money ahead IMHO.
