    Jay, Thanks for the information! This motor won’t get run much, let alone raced.
    I just wanted to make sure I put it together the correct way.

    Regarding V4 rod conversions, I have no idea what that entails.
    I am curious though if anyone has had their Speeditwin crankshaft
    rod journals turned down, and succsessfully found an over size
    roller bearing set-up?
    My crank journals are worn some with some etching. I read that this is
    less of a problem when the rollers are in cages like the Speeditwins,
    as compared to loose roller setups.
    Merry Christmas.

    Prepare to be boarded!
