just looking through some info and noticed that the m117 iron blocks have 52mm big end and 26 mm small end rods. Is that right? m119 and alloy m117 have 48mm and 24mm pin? i just had the crazy idea to run m119.960(tall deck CIS) flat top 48.5 compression height pistons and bottom end in a 4.5 block. what would compression ratio be? i guess valve cuts would be needed and maybe i could run 100ll avgas if its crazy high. I have a m119.960 with 4000 miles and a bad block deck surface. just a thought.
