My concern is if the bolt starts getting tugged back/forth, how well is that CPP spindle going to handle it. I'd prefer everything to be SNUG.

I'm testing another option now before making a decision. I might make an adjustable 'sleeve' & upsize the outer end of things to actually use a legit TRE vs. a heim-joint.

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.
