I didn't

I couldn't afford a 620 but was told that a big-bored 600 would create equal power. Re-reading Neil Spalding's Rules Guide on his website also suggests this too, taking it one step further...

The Flatsides route is a fair comment BUT - (a) you have to source them and (b) you have to pay for them and (3) you have to get them fitted and spend time getting them setup.
