82mm stroke - 45mm crankpins vs 87mm stroke - 40mm crankpins The 5mm in stroke is made up with the 5mm smaller crankpins.
Offset grinding the crank by 5mm will actually give you 10mm extra throw/stroke..

How do you seal these? A head gasket each side?

Re E85 - this is 85% Ethanol (and therefore 15% gasoline). From articles I've read Ethanol has less energy content than petrol (hence V8 Supercars having to run richer mixtures/burn more fuel/more fuel stops last year).

11:1 is about the max for pumpgas. I run Avgas (110) in my racecar which is 13:1 CR.

Here in NZ we have the exhaust brand "Wolf". They made (make?) 2 types of extractors for A series: 1. Single carb - tubes 2&3 go under 1&4 (relatively tight bend down to get under the inlet manifold. 2. Twin carb - tubes 2&3 go over 1&4 (and look like they'd flow better). (Coby brand may be the same?)
I'd be checking this aspect more so than whether A12/A14/A15.

Rough benchmark for a good race-spec 2 valve/pushrod engine: 100 BHP per litre (at flywheel) - eg 1300cc / 130BHP 80 BHP per litre (at wheels) - eg 1300cc / 104BHP At 7500-8000rpm.

A suitably sized large washer from a hardware store works fine too.
