Ok guys I have a 79 mk II case and was wondering if everything out of that case will swap right over to an 80 kz 1000 case,?

Yep, and if you don't mind me asking, something happen to the MK2 cases that deem them unfit?

If both motors have provision for a kickstart then yes! everything will fit as all kicker motors are basically the same engine with some subtle differences which shouldn't apply if it's just a crankcase swap.
If the later motor was an early 'J' type (which would be 1981 onwards in case you have miss-typed ) with no kickstart then NO it's not a straight swap as these have hyvo type camchain and a different tensioner set up as well as a fatter output shaft and other differences.

Hi les and no there is nothing wrong with it at all it's just the other case has been bored out to fit a 1197 kit so I am going to buy that if it has a kick start hole on it lol
