[QUOTE="Pappy, post: 411451, member: 3278"] I found that 24:1 was alot for this engine and for me to say that.....well.....it takes a bunch. The ratio I settled on is around 32:1 - 40:1, anywhere in that range. When measuring the oil I always err on the safe side hence the difference in ratios. The engine has alot of port area in it and the offset powerhead allowed the engine to have a huge exhaust system starting under the cowling. A straight fore and aft facing powerhead would have had limitations right off the bat. [/QUOTE]
