The first and most important thing on a 1300 is to make the middle oil =
feed passage larger. It serves cylinders 2 and 3 while the other two oil =
passages (front and rear) serve only 1 cylinder. You will end up with a =
grenade going off in your race engine eventually if that one thing is =
not done. Ask me how I know.
I wish I=E2=80=99d known that fact beforehand.
