I know, but hanging out with such groups I also know most of them are not willing to pay the price that comes with the needed qualty and high strength materials.

I May get one and machine the block to lower the sleeve and see if I can create what I’m looking for .
Gimar also did convert a 9 port onroad engines to GT so it must be possible. I also do see more and more short manifolds so maybe looking further or shorten one? I think the .24 will give more overal power and maybe to get the right milage it is already lower timed.
