What difference would it make if it is 2"s of offset? It is working at the rpm it is designed for. Are you calling 8500 a low rpm motor? lol.
I never said this setup would work at 10k rpm. I said 10k rpm could be attainable with moving things around on a SMALL ci motor. I assumed you would know that csa could be played with and a smaller port designed, thus less offset, cam lobes moved, lifter bores moved, etc.
An unrelated question, besides talking in circles, and a legit one.... how come your flopper ran 1/2 second slower in your possession than it does now with a less aero body?
