'77 KZ1000-MTC 1075 kit. Stage 1 port

I also had Joe at Pit Stop do my machining. I bought MTC 10.5:1 1075 pistons from him and had him bore the block. Also had him rebuild the head and port it. I have a few thousand miles on the motor now and it runs great!
Keith1, I didn't know you sold your KZ. I remember getting advice from you when I was rebuilding mine.
