I think RMS or one of his buddies had one installed. You might look in the Build section for his posts about it. RMS should chime in here and post the details.

And that's with one carb :wink:

265's sitting in the frame, idles down more than the 251. i had her quietly spinning @ 450 were as the 251 starts to sputter and hunt below 600rpm. the 251 starts lugging out with violent shuddering under load around 750 before it flashes out or you pic a lower gear. im hoping the 265 canadian will be more luggable with that extra stroke.
