It sounds like a good combo but it depends on what CR you're going to use. If you use a 10.25:1 kit it'll survive better than a 12:1 or 13.5:1 kit on the street. If you will be doing a LOT of stop-n-go traffic go with a lower CR kit. I'm personally going to go with a 1428cc/ 13.5:1 MTC kit with Web 109 (.410") and 40mm RS carbs on my 'Stripfighter. But I'm also using it for 95-98% drag strip and 2-5% street duty, there for I can afford to go with a higher CR than if it was the other way around.

Later, Doug

go with the 10.25:1 kit with 36mm carbs;)

Remember also that too high of a CR makes the use of race gas mandatory. At 12:1-13:1 you would need between 100-110 octane most likely o avoid detonation, depends on several factors but just be aware that if you want to ride it through the country side you may have trouble getting high enough octane.
