Has anyone tried to design a new crank and camshaft that would allow the engine to fire more like a modern engine, this would make the engine smoother and have a higher rpm range. The stock engine has two pistons up or down at a time. If there was a way to change the rotation and fireing order like one of the modern four cylinder engines with a crank and cam change, it could be a win, win combination. At the same time the stroke could maybe be changed. Could open a whole new avenue to more speed and horse power options.
