For dual fuel cars we do not suggest it, I am very much about the 9:1 if its going to rip around on gas. As far as the 2.2 vs 2.4, this is going to be 800+whp and needs a crank anyway we decided to go back to something I experimented with 3 years ago.

The 2.2 should be tons of fun! It will rev like a 2liter and make more power and tq. I am quite jealous.

Yeah I am pretty stoked to come home to this build, especially not driving the car for over a year. Myles and English have been nothing but top notch. I was pretty set on a 2.4LR but after some discussion it seems like the 2.2L would better suit the 3794 in my case. Its definitely built towards being a top end car which I am fine with. I loved having a 2.3L with a FP Green but just wanted something different

^ very cool.

How do you like that K1 crank compared to the Eagle Aaron?

Are those asymmetrical wiseco HDs? Reduction in weight?
