Yeah, we looked under the frame & I could see where the 'initial' kick-up is vs how the 67-72 frame is (I have a 68 swb frame sitting on my trailer). The CPP dropped center is still higher than the bottom lower plane of the frame rail.

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.
