I'm in agreement w/these guys. 'Was the tank flange designed/intended to support the weight w/o the straps? ' would be what I want to know.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....
Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
