The strength/stress analysis he did indicated the rear would still have a stress point @ that rear bend so the solid rod was needed.

The front notches are what 'everyone else' is installing w/their Dropmember installs. I decided I would prefer the frame around the notched area to be re-inforced. That's about it.

I meant to take a couple of pics from where I smoothed the side of the frame rail & 'removed' the curved portion on the top of the frame but forgot....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
