OK, last post, final whining:

If you buy a set of ST2 heads, you will have the following problems:
They fit good, except no output for the rev counter.
Do you want to replace your whole gauge setup? :roll:

If NO, do not buy ST2 heads. PERIOD.
Just a simple advice for anyone who wants to replace their 907 heads.

ST2 heads are not a simple fit. This info is wrong from finnpaso:
:
Surely they fit very easily, no anykind troubles....

I cheked just thing from my ST2 (2001) and seems, there is just "place" for that rev sender unit.

Its easy job to "metalman"(with good tools surely) to make hole and threads for mechanical rev counter.... If You cant find such from Sweden, U can find such easily from Finland... :D Those are human made things and if metalman cant fix them, then not so good man.... I am electrician, so would go surely to electrical tacho!

New technology is near allways better, than old one... Btw, it should look "cool" to put electrical tacho to Paso rev counter place... :P

You Swedish "give up" too easily... (i know reason to that, but i dont want to say it here...)

Antti,
I don't know that reason, no matter he seems very angry with you :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: .

I guess he wouldn't buy a ST2 engine/heads after your advice...
