There'd have to be something somewhere that fits.
I'm thinking about doing something to the BA's top end also.

I'm supercharged man some flow work and bigger valves might produce some nice top end power.

That's the beauty of a democracy Frank.
Cams and some porting at the same time and she'll be ace.

best guess would be finding out some dia and length ect then contacting a engine rebuilder and looking thru his size books, maybe a place like precision, nasons, ect could help.
