I think the problem is piston to connecting rod clearance.  In Monroe's book
he talkes about being unable to put a 302 crank in a 289 without using 302
pistons and rods.  302 rods would probably fit into a 260 but I kind of
doubt that the pistons would.

Just a guess.

I feel naked and alone. However, I have maintained the originality of my
Tiger including drive train, wheels and trim rings with religious fervor. It
is history. The performance is quite adequate for me. If I want high
performance I climb aboard my  Triumph 1200..Regards,  Gary

accomodate that long of a stroke. Is that true anyone?
