1100 sleeves in a kz block???

even if using a j model head? So basically you are saying that the sleeves themselves are longer?

??? sorry for my stupidity. I just bought the 1100 sleeves and will be using a j head. Will the spacer be to compensate for the sleeves being longer? Or are they just to drop the compression if i were to use a kz head with the j pistons?

the spacer makes up for differant pin height in the pistons,im not sure if theres any differance in sleeves other than diameter.

I just won a set of gpz1100 cylinders on ebay for $30. So are you telling me that it will not work if i take these sleeves and press them into a kz block, and use 1170 pistons with a j head? Alot of information was posted, but i didn't seem to get an answer to my question. I probably just wasnt reading it right, but can somebody tell me if the above combo will work, and if not, what will be necessary to make it work.

YES IT WILL

J, Just curious? when u bore the sleeves to 1170cc,how much wall thickness is left?
Is this the best way to achieve 10:1 with a J head ? what are the alternative roughts for a j or GPZ head as far as piston selections to put into a KZ with a J or GPZ head? Do u have off the shelf pistons for a KZ with J or GPZ heads, or is this a custom set up ?
Thanks for sharing your expertise .

Called JE and no good deals on pistons.

When we do a setup for a KZ that is going to use a J head. We use J pistons and a .040" spacer.

Sory for the hyjack Jordon.
i thought this would be good info for all.
Jay,whats the best set up for a GPZ (bathtub 84,85)head on a kz ?

Custom pistons

Thanks Jay.
