My mate in Germany has a M8F since 1975 (former Kelleners car). He is still racing it.

Today tall deck blocks are widely used but because of rod throw the stroke is under 4.5" (not sure if more than 4.25"). Else you would have to lift the engine, which impacts on everything.

There is a chap here on cc who raced one, too.
