Yep; it's called economics, the study of the allocation of scarce resources.

Thanks Gerald, thanks Sammie, thanks everyone that had input. It looks like it 
is a simple matter of finding the correct bore matched with the correct stroke, 
made by the correct manufacturer, at the right price, with the proper 
accessories built by the best builder with the most experience to match the 
right bus.....simple. 


I will give Ronnie a call, getting all this information will help. I guess it's 
like everything else in life. You just do the best you can with what you've got.
