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.

305/40/22. Kinda to bulky for me but the 40 series was all they offered for a 12" wide rim when i bought them. Now they have smaller profiles!

Great progress Brother! I missed all the frame work. It looks like some serious time was wrapped up in that! Keep the pics coming, you know we love them.
