1260 Big Block upgrade for spanking a Harley

Well, that kinda pissed me off a little and I told him I'd race him and we could burn the loosers bike.
Now's the problem, I don't want to burn my bike. So I'm collecting parts for a Z1A/GSXR streetfighter build, but have some engine questions.
A member here is doing some work for me and offered me a 1260cc big block and 10:5 pistons for my build, but I have been doing some reading and I'm not sure if I should use it or not?
I've read about issuses if you install a big bore kit on a street bike, like overheating, upgading tensioner, welding the crank and undercutting 2nd gear. Would all of this hold together?

I want to take this
and make something like this
and spank that Harley's ass. :evil:
I have the exact same GSXR parts as this guys build.

P.S. Is this person in the thread a member here, but under a different name? I thought I seen this bike here before.

Go from a 20 roll , and you will pull him as soon as you hit it. Use your trans to keep your revs up high to launch and you should spank him hard. :evil:
But of course I would Never break the law so do it on a track :whistle:
Or send him my way and I will have a go at him

I agree, your bike should give him a good spanking in stock trim, they are quick off the mark, but run out of puff very quickly, it will be a sad day when a Hardly Dangerous can take on a Kwacker.
Of course pics, preferably video of the Hog roast are mandatory, or it didn't happen.
There is something otherworldy about experiencing the sound of an air cooled inline four redlined while heeled over at 35 degrees from horizontal, with the slipping rear tire violently trying to shake you from your perch atop the slewing beast..

You can do a 1260 in a stock KZ1000 block and keep the air passages. Makes a great sleeper mod, but requires some head work to take full advantage.
