It's a fundamental choice. I want to keep the engine free of as much add on as I can.
I may set up a second engine a little more aggressive with the ability to quickly change them out. If I find another way to drive the alternator I would have no pulleys/belts on the engine.
I also like the idea of another electric pump for the oil separate of the oil system itself.
