Re: bag question

Take the bag to the hardware store & try a couple to see what fits. I'm not familiar w/the bags listed, but F.stones & Slams use 3/8" hardware in varying lengths depending on where they're mounted @ the chassis.

For the DM front on mine, I used 3/8-16 x 1.00".

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.

Figure .500" for thread engagement plus the thickness of the material(s) your poking the bolts through & you'll have a good idea on the various lengths required.
