I have a 77 KZ 1000 manual- anyone know if there is a difference between heads dissassembly/assembly of a 77 head and a 75?

Just don't want no suprises and am checking it out first!

Pahoa, Hawaii is my new hom
I am working hard to save up the shipping money to get my shop opened here in Hawaii
I hate electrical stuff.

None that I am aware of...

There is a slight difference in combustion chamber
do to CC or displacement (it's a little bigger I think)
They all disassembly/assembly the same.
Don't forget when assembling, install and shim
one cam at a time and make sure the head is NOT
sitting flat on the bench. or you can bend the valves
