Following are some options that will give more power, better fuel mileage and still not hurt bearing life.  I am assuming a couple of things, 1) We are building a Model A engine (as opposed to a B engine)  and 2) that we want it to idle nicely and have good “driveability”.  These are big assumptions as it is kind of like asking how fast is fast?  Keep in mind that if you ask 10 Model A ‘experts’ you will most likely get 12 different answers, most will be good, so you just take it all in and decide for yourself what is best for you.
