Just wondering which way to go right of the bat, static or bag.
Starting from scratch, coil spring trucks are more cost effective to bag the rear if the intent is to use it as a truck. The bags allow adjustability that coils can't match. If done w/a manual fill system, the cost can be within $100 of dropped coils.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
