QUOTE(914werke @ May 30 2018, 10:37 AM)  1911 Concur, it uses existing crank and rods. Select 96mm pistons that will work with those rods and cylinders to go with it. You can go with reworked heads, or perhaps new 1.8 heads set up with increased valve sizes optimized for 1911. You can add power if you choose to use carbs because you can then select a more aggressive cam. Find a recipe for a 1911 that meets your budget. Check out EMW for machine shop and parts prices. Parts also available at AA. Mark |
