Awesome stuff, really cool to see something so different being done to the KR.

I'm guessing you'll be having custom pipes made?

Where are you aiming for peak power rpm wise. The 5ke peaks about 12250rpm, I'm guessing with the modified KR crank you won't be aiming as high as that?

Power wise we will have to see on the dyno , I will only be running on Shell V Power pump fuel , no additives . The long stroke engine Graham has tuned to have max power at about 11250 rpm and the standard stroke engine at about 12500 rpm . Tony Green will be making the expansion pipes for both engines .
