What size of rod? Also I might reuse the stock heads but plan to rework them would I be able to shave them down to a 64cc chamber or would I have to weld them up, Or do I want to? also plan to port and polish, new valves and springs, already have the roller rockersLast edited by #1firebird; 08-21-2006 at 03:33 PM.

The first model car I built was a 32 Ford roadster by Revell in the mid 50's.
How did you get hooked on cars?
