Hey MM, rod close-up #2, is that a port (jet) to direct oil onto the inside of the piston dome for cooling? If so I would like to see a picture of the inside of your pistons! Great pictures and info. Kingzx12r showed me that N2O was do-able and now this. Also, stick a finger inside your exhaust port exit, at the gasket surface and post what you find. If you find the same thing I did I'll post some pictures.

Mike; thanks for the pics. If you have more and want to post them on the web and need a place for them just email them to me and I will put them up on our server in thumbnail fashion.
What exactly are your plans for the motor? 1361 or 1270? Bergie
