That my friend is the definition of a pile of parts and pieced together.

An Eagle kit would have matched parts and balanced parts. Perhaps the balancing could be improved, but a kit will be at a good starting point.

I would need to see documentation stating that the parts are forged.

100cc domed pistons? Are you building a dragster? -18cc pistons will work MUCH better for street use.

Muther Thumper? Please! All noise, no power, no economy. Any given "normal" cam can out perform a Thumper.

A 388 will NEVER have a 350 crank.

I would pass. There is nothing special here. Headache waiting to happen.
