this is EXACTLY where i wanted to go. would you use the stock crank? or would you go for more stroke?? is there an easy way to get a 4" stroke crank?? another question, my starter was recently rebuilt to the hilt by the former owner, can i just use a different housing with the same guts? where would i find that? thanks tom, you rule........
