No suggestions, but I would say just put it in if you have it, run it and see how it performs. I know that its a killer engine already, but maybe you wont like certain aspects or want more out of it in certain areas.

You dont have to send it off to anyone to replace the bearings, all you need is an oven! Just heat it up to 200 deg celsius and up, put just the crankcase with the bearings (of course) and let it sit in there for a while. Once it's heated up, all you do is tap out the bearings! Some require a little work, but usually a tap is all it needs. Once they're out, stick the case in again to heat it up so the seats expand again, then put the bearings in again - with the main bearing, put it in while its on the crankshaft so it goes straight in, the outer bearing isnt hard to put in. Let it cool and that's it! Ive never had a problem doing that to any engine. Just lube it up a little and its good to go.

Nice stuff, but the Michael Slaven's name is actually Michael SALVEN, unless there is a guy named Slaven. German dude, Head Honcho of Serpent? Still sweet stuff you've got going on there! Im getting the RB T10 for my RRR in a few weeks, cant wait to get it!
