What a waste! A type 3 engine built up with 88mm P/Cs, ratio rockers, 
lightened flywheel, and an SPG roller crank and then they throw on a set of 
single port heads and a single side draft carb.

The SPG roller crank is worth a lot (if it's still any good,) and there's a lot of 
flash in the paint, but I don't get the impression that there's much else here.

The whole thing strikes me as something that was just put together from the 
last parts that this guy had lying around, rather than being a well thought out 
set of parts chosen to work well together.
