Hell buddy with that much left you should be able to punch it out at least .115.......................
Carl, didn't you try that?
Don, Dale, and I have been burning up the phone lines and email. We're all on the same page with the engine mods for this winter, and planning has started. That is one of the advantages of being so far apart geographically-only a couple of people are generally turning wrenches at the same time!
We have a plan for a new,stronger girdle, and ductile iron sleeves. We'll have to give up 10 CID, but it will be worth it. We're going to do some flow work, and swap to a roller cam setup,turbos, EFI, and computer management.
I've received a few emails, asking me "What the hell are you doing?!" It's simple-The FlatCad team deeply believes in the potential of this engine. We want to perfect it, and see what it has. Our goal is to build the ultimate flathead, and hopefully partner up with a 'fast car'-lakester and/or a liner, and go fast! Ron Main, watch out! Lol!
In the mean time, the thrash for El Mirage has begun, with Don working on moving the Liberty tranny shifter, so that it centers on the tranny, about 6" forward of it's current position. I've been ordering the miscellaneous parts needed to complete the car, so when I return home on the 6th, I can get after it. Barnes is supposed to look at the oil pump today.
I'm going to have to transport it on an open trailer.What can I put on the windows, to protect the Lexan?
