I'll also be ordered a Meziere Flex plate for an R5. I am quite excited! AL... Alan Jones

It will be interesting to see how it all goes, and Rick is working on more and more parts to make this conversion easier AL... Alan Jones

The XR2 project engine I believe he is working on in between other work and the production blocks are slowly starting to trickle through now. I'd have to check back with him to be sure. AL...

The R5 would be better suited to that. I can really deck the block down and get the block in the middle 8's for the deck height. AL... Alan Jones
