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.

I'm at the 8-year mark, so seeing yours is a large encouragement. Congrats on your accomplishment. A first-place award certainly seems appropriate.
