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.

I bought a 72' kit to use with the stock crossmember before I got the dropmember. It fit perfect, then I had to do some rebending on some of the lines to work with the new setup. Its one of those things where you test it then bend it, then test again and bend it a little more till it worked.

I played w/the 73-up lines (Inline Tube pre-bent kit) & they looked like they would work w/similar 'minor' tweaks. I was curious if the 71-72 fit w/o the tweaks.

Do you have any good shots of them installed? I'm getting ready to order the lines for my 64 & was considering the 71-72 route on this one.
