This is one of those mods I have been keeping in the back of my mind for when I finally had wheels big enough to clear them, which I do now. Hmmmmmm...
If you 'must-have' an easy, cheap-ish, dual piston set-up, bolt-on the Wilwood D52's & forgettaboutit.

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.
