Don't buy Porsche jouirnal rods, get the Buick (Chevy) Skip the 911 cooling system too IMHO. Put it all in a new case. With that parts list, I wouldn't skip a good foundation. |

Personally I feel that Superflo heads and really large valves are not good for the type of riding we do. They will not give you the velocity in the ports you need for the RPM range we use most. Power will come on around 4000 RPM and up. I would think the largest I would go would be a set of Street eliminaters with 44 X 37 valves. They have smaller ports. Even they are a little on the large size. |

Brad, The motor you just described is a drag racing motor. If you put that in your buggy you will hate it. I know your style and you will not like the powerband it will give you. If you want a bigger motor and need some advice, PM me and we will talk about it. Roy |

Roy is right on .I built that same motor to run in the sand wide open all the time .Later changed the cam to a engle 100 with 1.5 rockers with the low duration cam it was a tork monster |
