This is now getting more confusing.  I'm retarded because I can't read, according to your last post, which said:

well now you are also retarded for not being able to read as thats not what i said.

This is after you said:

if you still think digi is vastly superior, after all that has been said then you are retarded, simple as that.

From what I'm reading with my minute little brain, you're saying that if I think digi3 is vastly superior to K-Jet then I'm retarded.

The inference from that is that you think K-jet is better.  The two are clearly not level-pegged, as one tends to kill engines and block the intake with a big stupid flappy meter, while the other protects engines and doesn't restrict the intake (among other benefits). 

Unless you can explain why digi isn't vastly superior (which is the bit I'm waiting on here) then as normal, you're just making noise.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Veedubgti16v didn't say that k-jet is better, he said it is workable.
I think there is a difference there.

see dh, others understand. its not your theory people have a problem with (generally), its your sh!tty attitude of 'i have fitted these bits, therefore every other solution is sh!t' when its simply not the case.

Ok lads nice read! So if I can't find a digi abf system I will continue to use kjet anyway and if can anyone give me an estimate on how long it will last before it does cock up? I just feel it's a daunting task of changing this to digi, but after some research I will crack it anyway.

So as for the list of things to get before starting, belt is abf-spec (taller block) and everything else like inlet/exhaust manifold gaskets, oil, oil filter, water pump etc is the same as mk2 kr-spec. Is that right?

Better with the ABF inlet as I believe it is bigger.

I only got the bare abf engine. Absolutely everything else will come from the old kr!! I have also heard of people preferring the kr head on an abf bottom end. So am i right about the parts?

Yay! So the belt is the only abf-specific part and I can make it all work from kr parts. So if the engine runs lean at high rpms the kjet will eventually kill my engine as long as I don't rev it too high all the time. So can anyone advise on how long i can expect it to last before jet kills it?

Sorry to keep asking but it will be my 1st engine transplant!
