due to the m42/m44's high compression, and short stroke, i would think that many people build up the drive trains on these things so that they can rev higher, would i be correct to assume this? |
The factory wheel and tire size on the Sport models was 16x7" with a 225/50-16" tire.
Don't know much about modding the drivetrain, although from what I've heard, the M42 has a forged crank whereas the M44 has a cast crank.
