- Makes sense, though you cna porbably run up to about 6300 or 6400 with a well balanced, shot-peened magnafluxed stock crank. I like them (I'm using the ones from Richard Good), but make sure that you

- Ahaaaaa, better engines...we all love 'em. Not sure if you are a vintage racer or an EP guy but from some of the items I'm assuming it's vintage. There are lots of vintage race groups, some have subs

- 6000 with a stock crank is doable. Get a good one that's straight and have the best work obtainable for turning and polishing the journals. Inspect rod bearings and center main after the first event

- I've just picked up a spare TR4 block to build a better engine--as you may recall, my current one is a bit of a dog. All I've settled on so far is a big bore kit with Mahle pistons and Deeves rings.

- Total Seal has a "unique" second ring that is gapless. You can buy a complete ring set from them (John Lye likes their sets with moly top rings) or send them your Deves rings to convert. What they d

- Sounds good--we'll do that. I'm thinking about a little over 6000 for the redline. I'm not ready to step up for a moldex crank, so I figure I'd better keep the revs reasonable. How about the roller r
