Bottom & sides are 3/16" steel. The bottom is flush w/the outer edges of the OE arm. The sides tie the bottom into the sides on the top.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
