As for me, when it comes time to do a build, I'll do an HQ Sport Touring 113" kit--HD 4.060 cylinders at 4.065", stock heads ported by HQ, HQ reverse dish pistons, 10.5:1 CR, HQ 575 cams, HQ Black Ops lifters, 4 3/8" crank that's been "darkhorsed," SE 50 mm TB with 4.89 injectors, etc. and keep my Rinehart TD's. Should be good for about 115-120 hp and 130 ft. lbs tq. It's basically the same build as the HQ 120 without the 4 5/8" crank that yields about 150 ft. lbs tq. that Dalton, PhilM, and Hotpursuit run--powerful, reliable, and 40+ mpg.
