I've build 3 of these in the last few years. Had Gosh do the machining / balancing, and used basic eagle rods / wiseco setup.

Amazing engine... it will survive nearly anything you throw at it.

I have heard over the years (but never verified) that some of them had cast cranks instead of forged? I was told that if you rapped a peen against the crank the forged ones would "ring" and the case would "thud". Sounds like complete forum hogwash, however.
