I know there are engine builders that know what to do to get all there is out of an engine . The engine in the car now is a kuntz motor and i doubt i'll ever know anything like him but i have the pieces to build another motor and would like to try. And can anybody tell me what .015 to the crank would help and how is it achieved ? Thanks
