unfortunately he passed away 2 years ago. i got the ol Z1 back and just recently drug it outta corner and started messing with it. over all it is pretty good, everything works but i knew it needed valve job and rings. so....
apart it came..
everything turned out pretty good..
it's ready to go back together but i am much better with two strokes. anybody live round the indianapolis area thats been thru this before. pretty sure i can handle it... but sure would be nice to have a lil experience close by.
i am 35 minutes west of indy..

Thanks les,
a lIl advice first off. It currently has stock bore 900 bits on it right now.. But, I also have a new 1085 kit sittin basement ready if I choose to install it. But what are pros n cons of this kit. Ahould I keep it stock or install kit. Also have a few sefs of carbs to choose from.. And one is supposed to be a smooth bore set. Will the smooth bores be to much for stock set up? Surely they would be ok for big bore kit.
Then a hand with dropping the cylinders over pistons would be nice. I have two individual ring compressors, also have a 4 piston ring compressor. I am just used to working on singles.. So this inline 4 is new to me so someone that has been down this road before would be nice to lend a hand when comes time to assemble this top end.
Right now its ready to put together... I am not sure which way to go with it.

I will get my chit together and check the fit of the larg er cylinders.. Then get pistons swapped out. When ready to assemble I will holler at ya.
A another dumb queation... I have two new in package head gaskets, both one piece. One is oem and other is weisco. Both say good for 900/1000 engines, will they work for the 1075? I was assuming they would be ok.
