    you want to move them, best to move the out side two up and out to the sides, center up with more height than the outer two. chauffeured is best, the wider the bridges the better thay stay cool = the longer she will last.

    the last shot, those are them, them bein what you want yours to look like

    Default Well I built her over the winter minus the finger ports

    After tearring her down, I notice the piston port windows where work on so I got curious about how she ran when she was healthy and decided to grind the port map with out the finger ports. I got her honed and put new rings and fiber reeds in it. After waiting patiently for a pro 50 clamp bracket with no luck, I've decided to replace my running power head with this one. Now my question is, what jets should I start with?
    Thanks. Mike
