Keith,  "wealth of knowledge"  I dont think so, wealth of experiences, maybe,
warning personal experiences may differ from application to application,  take a
crap load of timing out of it, run it just rich enough not to wash down the
cylinders, put a spark plug in it that holds the electrode 2 feet away from the
flame front, ask Rick Gold for the detonation proof stuff  and then sprinkle
fairy dust on it and do an gig, sacrifice some old aluminum parts (to the
aluminum gods) at the bonfire you will attend at "the corner" the night before
you run.

"how much Pressure does it take to drive over a Steel crank?"......... about 2hp
less than it takes to go as fast as you want

Joe :) :)
