Default What to do?

Im thinking about scrapping the DOHC idea due to computer crap. I think I might just take that aluminum block put in forged rods and pistons, take my pi heads to a shop and have them ported, go with a high rev cam and add some longtubes. I figure going this way is going to be cheaper and not quite so hard.

sounds like a much better plan than a 4v

kool, I was alittle worried that staying 2v wouldnt have been good enough, but it should be fine. Also, I already have the aluminum block so I might as well use it, plus it wieghs less.
