Just cut that extra fin away, never get the hole-shot, never win a race, and you should be okay. Can you do that?

Let me get this straight....a 250 engine will fit in a 175 frame? Do you have to change the rake?[:0]

Jerry, How set up are you for rebuilding the Sachs engines? I know you have recently been tutored by Doug Wilford on Sachs. Are you able to have Sachs cylinders bored and honed? I mean, I have one which needs to be worked on.... Joe
