Got a set coming. This is what I was waiting for. Used parts of Solid's Banned sticker set, looked OK for a while but then I got a little close with the pressure washer... Then just covered up the the stock yellow with elec tape. Now it will look stock.

Thanks Don!

From what I have seen on sled motors, shortening the head pipe to match the porting program and ignition curve can net success when a target rpm is chosen. However, that is quite a bit to remove.
