Looks GREAT!

With such a large cc-d engine, why did you not use the LE220's?
A 86c seems almost very (too?) mild for such a beast.

Tnx for the nice pictures!

They are like the LE 220's, thats why I said "highly modified".
It was going to be a "full roller" motor, but the 1.4 rockers are failing. So, the roller cam was scrapped for a flat tappet. The 84mm stroke is the reason for the 86c. The #2 and #4 exhaust lobe is close even with clearancing the rod cap. I would like my valve job to last for some time. If the rockers are worked out... it will go "full roller".
