    well tech can fine tune this or jerry but looks if you use the RHS 50cc head and use the felpro F1014 and a 13 cc dome piston with a 4.155 bore with a 3.250 crank you get around a 13.8 CR at O deck . JE makes a piston in a 13 cc dome that may work with the 50 cc head or some hand fitting of the dome may or not be in order as that piston is shown for a 58 cc head so as a shelf piston would be ez to see if it works in this build so looks like at can work

    As Richard said not to be a poser or a pain,but I am very sure all of you guys know of the shortcomings driving a race engine on the street.It ant about any sub and tubs.You can do that anywhere.Well,some race coilovers don't like that consistent use for very long.

    I am a big time street rodder for many years.The point of my post is I too have started a project with one intent and ended up with something a lot different letting the hot rodder get the best of me.This is a high dollar engine that more than likely a well planed engine of the period the car was,you would be able to build two.When Dave came up with this car,He said he was going to follow the path of when the car was raced last.I thought cool,he was going to build a truly
    a nostalgia gasser.All that brings back so many memories for so many people.

    So I am in no way being defensive here.Yeah,I know,I know,how builds change and grow from their original intent.In fact look how much the engine build has changed since Richard's posted link,which years ago would have been a backyard build,to where it is here.

    Build it like it is your last one...........is a common ground for all rodders.

    The above is just my two cents worth.
    Good Bye
