Irrespective of the new engine's power, the rolling resistance of the new wheels is going to be very high and it will affect performance and economy. I'd stick with round wheels personally. Not sure narrowing the front track was wise either wink

I think he's installing a hover-drive, so there will be no rolling resistance. wink

Why the downgrade to an inline head?

Also the sump is sitting a bit low too. Might ground out.
