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.

The 7" would be added to the center @ the top so the 'ends' still transition from top to bottom @ the same angle.

Yep, plus I had to use my "transition hammer" a lot to get some things to line up.
