Product Questions
It depends on what you want to do with the motor. If you're after just additional torque from the 82mm crank and will keep the RPM below 5,500 then 5.400" I beams will be ideal. If you're going to be running a wild cam, hitting 7,000+ between shifts then I would look at running a 5.500" CB Perf H beam.
