Watched RIDES tonight on INHD and it was all about the 550 Spyder replicas. While I was watching, I started wondering why we could not put a high performance Type-I engine in our teeners.
What are the limitations? Any reason people are not doing it? BTW, I did search for this in the archives and did not come up with much... |

They just don't have the torque a type 4 does. Head design is different, type 4 heads flow better and have more potential for a bigger hp/torque engine. Only positive I can think of... Parts are super cheap and radical engine builds are affordable. |
