Rotating mass doesn't have any effect but reciprocating mass does, you can't start & stop pistons, piston pins & the little end of the conrod for free. I also think a 93mm bore is really stretching the frendship too. I know it's splitting hairs, but more piston area sucks more heat out of the bang too. Add on a custom head gasket & you really get no return for the hassle.

Cheers,
Paul.
