    Crankshaft and Flywheel Lightening and balance

    If you are going for a man size cam, you will deffo need reduced height valve guides and more open springs, as both will hit with larger cam lift. I think std will go to 0.46" lift and machined guides + DVS (double valve springs) will go to 0.5". Also this will allow you for rev another 1K...

    Sailsbury axle in SWB

    Couple of reasons, firstly most obvious, with shorter prop for every inch of suspension travel on shorter prop the prop has to move more, and less prop movement is better for longer prop life. Also Milner kit moves engine up about 3 inches over standard so bulkhead surgey is pretty involved i...
