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.

Re: Blackbird

Delmo,

Are you leaving the trailing arm crossmember bolted up when you get the frames powder coated? Looks like a cool ride! What length are you are you setting up the trailing arms? I just got my arms and don't have my stock arms any more. Thanks

Re: Blackbird

Jimmy- you bet front and rear. Accuair as well.

Tony- I put the cross member all the way back with the rear arms a couple threads before they bottom out. The cross member was coated seperate but installed for transport.
