RE: Winter build
I second the 46 LA. It will save you a lot of money over the AX and would be more appropriate for a trainer. 46 ax is overkill in a trainer in my opinion. Don't worry about the bushings. These LA engines are easy to start, run great and last forever. I dare you to try to wear one out! Set the needle valve in the spring and you won't have to mess with it the rest of the season.
