Re: Two engines to make one?

Sounds like 2 engines to me , A class , special construction
May be more info on what you have in mind , and the class you think or would like to run in

Dave

I have spare std arms off old GPZ s Steel
I have another GSX 750 / 1000 arm here
A steel extension onto the original arm is not that difficult !
Come have a look. We can play with the Tig if it helps
