it's not so hard, it just costs a bit more. but it adds a lot of grunt.
the 750 i have puts out almost 90hp. dragster h2's running exotic fuels have
been dynoed at over 400hp!. they need to be rebuilt often, but what drag motor
doesn't.
the quest for hp is expensive but doable. honda built a tt racer that got 18hp
out of 50cc! the 8 speed gearbox got it up to 100mph.
read about the mv augusta racers, you wouldn't believe me.

Suzuki built but never raced a 3 cylinder 50cc engine that was rated at
the highest output per liter on record for use with pump gas. However
to get to one liter it would have 60 cylinders...
