I talked to my good race buddy yesterday of this subject, he thinks that you have to run some type of fan on the crank somehow to help with the cooling duty. I think some type of fuel pump is in order as well to make it work.

There is a thread here that Damon used to show his old GT I believe but it is hard to see in the pictures what all it involves, that is why I would like to speak with someone personally who has built this conversion sucessfully.
You really need to read the entire thread on the 4 stroke thread that fathead posted above. I know its a lot to go through, but those guys really have put in the time and effort and have been kind enough to share there experiances.
