No, just N/A; the square is my daily driver now. To boot, it will run on LPG and since LPG (very common in the UK as well, I thought) has a higher octane rating than the best gasoline available (LPG has above 100 octane IIRC) I will set up that engine with a compression ratio between 1:10 and 1:11. That way I do not have to shave down the porsche pistons all the way, which is a good thing too.

Ephry, as for the ARP studs: The thread in the aluminium case is about an inch long and fine threaded M12. I don't think it will rip out that easily.
I also believe that cryoing will give the metal more durability and more wear resistance, but it doesn't change the heat conductivity properties of it. It still gives off its heat at the same (poor) rate.
Nevertheless every improvement does help I guess.
For carbs, the obvious choise to me for a 2366cc would be a set of 44IDF's with 36 venturis.

Greetings,
Walter
