I thought the Mitsu 4g ran counterclockwise like a Honda engine?

Only in the southern hemisphere. The Earth rotates counterclockwise on it's axis. Objects moving above the earth in the northern hemipshere moving perpendicular to the earths rotation will be deflected to the right. So you better watch out when you pop a wheelie. Your front end might turn to the the right and you'll crash. Unless you can find a dragstrip that is moving parallel to the earths rotation and in the same direction. You might break records then! I think race tracks in Texas do this...

So you are ricing out an american truck. J/K It would be cool to get 500hp out of that little engine though.
