The 4.000 cylinders on the samba have the same cut outs as the autocrafts. (They look like a copy) It would be a lot nicer if the fins were full circle & not notched but drilled for the 5th & 6th studs like the other 4. They would be a lot more ridged & less proun to warpage. who ever is going to make the cylinders for a street engine will have to put alot more fins to help keep it cool. Rocky

That was my thought exactly. Someone has to make a cylinder I can use.

I know you can call LA Sleeve and they will make you anything you want. Might cost a fortune though.
