I figured out how to settle the BB v. SB thing...I put a 5hp Briggs & Stratton blower motor in my EM. I sawed a big hole in the hood so I could get the pull string easily (none of that non-purist electric start stuff for me). She handles like a dream on the track (although she fish tails like a mother if yer not careful!). The torque isn't great but you should see the looks I get at shows...everyone runs over when I start it and that stroked 5hp comes to life through the side pipes (I'd quote ci but I forgot the number..I'm now actually getting 7 hp (29% increase!) which for all you naysayers I dyno'd at the flywheel of course...I wouldn't want that chasis dyno variation that we all argue about) Guys, you just have to try it. With this set-up I feel I can take all comers on the front lawn (or backyard)..your choice.
