Lightbulb T5 Oxy-Boxer

Anyone on here running or building a T5 Oxy-Boxer?

After pulling a 2.1 MV engine I just see so much potential, but few details are out there on what exactly needs done to make it work.

The real hurdle I see it machining the 94s to fit the WBX case. Everything else is normal details.

Also I do not plan on relocating the head studs. The holes are for 10mm studs but it is stepped to a 8mm head stud. My plan is to put in "case savers" to essentially bush the 10mm to an 8mm and use those studs with some mods since it needs cut .5" anyway. Then bore the head hole out a little and the cylinder holes out a little and then you are in business. The studs are not that different really.

The hard part in the states is getting T5 bearings

... FWIW you all can count on a yard sale of all my T4 stuff if this works out. Give me a month
