Not original builder. He has inherited the engine and I've asked him to change it from a full-on high compression twin 48s race engine with narrow power band 6000-8000rpm to a more user-friendly injected engine. Reducing the cam will increase the compression even more and so she needs a thicker head gasket to compensate. That's as I understand it anyway
