I can't help you with articles but here's a photo of one........Alan Jonses 132cc stage 3 Yoshi SL, Carillo rod, Yoshi cam and kit, 12:1 piston Krober ignition, Yoshimura casting head and all sorts of tricky doo dads. The carby is a 36mm Amal on Methanol, a big carby for a little engine but it works great. The engine is now in Alans little Rickman Metisse (Ugly Betty), replacing the Zundapp that used to live there.
