4 valve head swap?

pic

You're cracked haha. I'm looking forward to seeing how this works out for ya.

Whoo-hoo it's getting heated out there on the forum. Oh well.

My guy says the second block arrived today. Next step is borring the upper cases to accept the block, that should happen sometime this week.

I have sent some best offer request to e-bayers trying to sell zx750 heads without the cam caps, I am trying to explain the head is useless without the caps, but you know breakers.... if it's old its $$$. Chances are that the cam bearings will need a good hone after the heads are split and welded to insure they are ture; don't wanna snap a cam after all! So if they need to be honed anyways I will try to socre a cheap head.

:laugh:

He says.... He will.... He thinks.... Why don't you have HIM do the post because HE is the one building the motor and doing all the technical work

Let's see something you've done.

Trust me buddy I will be getting to lay a bead of weld on this project (wich Rob will probably have to re-do). I will be there to turn a wrench the day the motor comes together.


I am not a welder. I am not a machinest. Does that mean it is not my project?

Rob tends to stays away from forms; he hates idiots with large post counts who tell him how to do his job.

He has been trolling this board, and wants me to go monoshock this winter as well.

What is going on around here lately...you're the "HE" for a lot of people around here, what's the problem?

There are pictures of what I have done here:

I turned this

into this: and on all of that Rob only powder coated some parts for me and helped me find the source of a bad ground. He also welded a bung into the stainless exhaust for my o2 sensor. He is a awesome help, but this is my bike!

I dunno why I havent seen a pic of your bike before, but thats just nice! Glad to see the ZR7 exhaust looks ok, I'm gonna have one soon. Do you have any details on your fender elim, I have to make one soon.

no real details. It is a piece of scrap steel bent to fit where the fender did. My buddy welded some thin rods on to it to triangulate the light/plate mount. There are some better pictures of it somewhere on the forum.

If you would like I could ask my guy how much it would cost to knock another one out. He does great work, I just rattle canned mine, but if you like I could ask him about powder coating prices as well. He is storing my bike for the winter so he can use mine as a template. Let me know if you want me to get a price!

Yes Larry he bent up my fender eliminator as well, I don't have a sheet metal brake so it was not my project I did rebuild and jet my carbs, rebuild my brakes, install a zrx master in front and gsxr in the rear (oh he fabbed and welded a bracket for me so that is not mine either) I pull my head for a valve clean up and surfacing then re-install it with a newer top end, rewire my charging system 2x, I swapped hardley shocks on to get rid of my shot shocks and a boat load more work but really Rob does it all.

Get a price, I've got nothing to lose, if its cheap enough I'll get it to save myself the PITA to make one. Don't worry about coating tho, I've got a local guy who does mine for cheap.

Yesterday my guy bored the upper cases to accept the zx liners. So now the liners drop in. I imagine he will be welding the blocks together within the week.
