You know what? I understood every word of that.

SCAT Killer Case, 101mm X 90mm is possible using their split port heads. http://www.evwparts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY <http://www.evwparts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Category_Code=Sc atEngineCase> &Category_Code=ScatEngineCase If you go Type IV you can get to 3L pretty easy but still, with four cylinders that's a lot of thumping. Rods can handle it with proper technology, H beams etc. But I'd think for longevity the case would start to feel it much sooner than something south of a 90mm stroke. 86 is about as far as I will go (and have). Have you priced Flanged Crank Bearings?? you can by a stroker type 1 crank for the price of just the rear bearing for a flanged crank... If you *really* want to drool... http://4inbore.com has some great stuff but *cough* I can buy 911 engines with more power and cheaper parts. Yeah, Porsche stuff that's cheaper than this. I was looking at those heads Clark was showing up at Eureka a couple of years back. When you're telling me $3500 for castings, I will pass.

That works out to 3177cc's. I can't even friggin imagine! Gives me goosebumps just thinking about it. -- My Email Moniker http://www.findinternettv.com/Video,item,1570570433.aspx No virus found in this incoming message.
