Per the sizing discussion earlier, the charger used on the Mini Cooper which uses a 4cyl, 1.6L 4 valve engine uses an Eaton M45 which moves 45ci of air per revolution which is 735cc. This engine makes peak power at 6000rpm. So if you think of the swept displacement difference of. KZ900 at not quite twice the rpm with a cylinder head that would probable flow considerably less than a modern 4 valve head like the Cooper, this might be a decent street bike engine fit for a 400-1000cc KZ engines. IMHO

close, but no double pumper the mini makes 140 cfm and the kz1000 makes 125 cfm so unless you got a smaller belt drive and a blow off valve it would never work. also those nubers are set a t 83% volumetric efficiency.NakedFun wrote: Would doubt that would have the square bore pattern of a Holley. Hey I am a turbo guy as well, how ever this would be neat and compact compared to a turbo system. Obviously, this is not a bolt on, but then again some of us are building bikes where nothing is a bolt on! Just thought I would post it.
