2, and to be honest, they are pretty solid, they obliterated the crank case. lol

I should have just gaffertaped the hole up, whipped out the plug on the injector, and run it as a 3 cylinder 12v. I bet she'd still have gone pretty well!

Seeing as a 8v has the same bore/stroke, i assume the size of the rod is the same.
