              All that work just to go from 3-3/16" to 3-7/16 bore ...

              Could have bore out the case without doing all the welding, but cam side deck would be super thin ..
              This adds beef to the deck and makes for a much stronger case when Big-Bore jugs are in use ..

                I like the Pans, Shovels look a lot like the Ironheads and kinda makes the motor look supersized ...

                  Hopefully it will be housed in the appropriate frame to keep that "supersized look" intact. Nothing rubs me the wrong way more than seeing too much empty space around the powerplant!
