I think I keep my money in my pocket. I don't want to wake up one morning dead with a knife sticking out of me. [sm=alcoholic.gif]

I don't think it's possible, but I get the point. LOL!

Would that be because the little woman was upset with the power hungry-money spending-biker dude she took for better or for worse, and it got worse?

Insane is correct, but damn, it will be fun...and it is good to know others are doing the build, will have some compadres to bounce questions off of as I pull the engine and reassemble the whole thing.

I wonder, there is a common build out there referred to as the Hippo build. I wonder what this one should be called? Godzilla ?

Hey Phil, what kind of goodies are going in there. I've got the 575 cam, hq heads (85cc I think) andCP dishtop pistons. Gonna do a little break-in and let the DTT do its thing and then do a Dyno just to see what kind of # I get. Then maybe play with the timing a little and see what I can get.

WHEW! 113 cu. in. builds, Sounds like saddle tanks mounted in the hard bags will be in order! Thank God we have no winter, otherwise we'd all be up late in our garages!
