This could be a killer combo, my sugestions are to run the Esslinger Ford, Midget sprint car engine. They are killer and will run over 12000 rpm in a Midget. The head has a ford part number and Essliger has roller followers / rocker arms. I have some experience with them and I think that you would be fast with one. This engine is very popular and you can find used engines and parts, there are a couple versions of the head a 3 cam bearing,4 and a 5 bearing. Of course the 5 is the best. But almost all of the engines are titanium valves and connecting rods.
Good luck, Conway Witten
