There have been others who have done so. At 7200rpm I'd just as soon pay
Hobart to machine it! What spec is a carburetted 2.2? I thought they were
all FI. Mine, by the way, is so smooth that you'll wonder why you didn't do
it years ago! Mine is FI & computerized fuel & ignition. You'll probably
need a high torque starter as well. ACNet was the best source when I bought
mine. Where are you putting the radiator & what rad are you using?
