With the overbore kit you will have a 123 cubic inch engine. Not much to work with, but it can still be hopped up a bit. Build it really good and pay extra attention to getting all the clearances correct and you can safely add 300 to 500 RPM to top speed by adjusting the governor, probably even more - I don't know the limitations of these engines yet. Milling the head and adding high compression pistons will add a couple horsepower also. As for the carburetor, maybe step up to an H carb if you can get it to fit, otherwise I wouldn't worry about it with an engine that small. Hope this helps Steven
