'Crate motor' if you will???

haha. I avoid suddenly rolling on the throttle at 7krpm on my bike... it being over 500lbs and a 77, haha!!

do you think I can blow that motor? what would that do to it?

blow as in supercharger?i thought you meant blow ,as into pieces!hahaha you would need differant lower compression pistons ,differant cams ,heavy studs etc.the engine itself wont cost that more to build but the turbo or supercharger whichever way you go will cost you atleast what the motor will cost you.for what you are trying to do id just go with carbs,if its not enough throw a nitrous bottle on there but i think you will find it will be a handfull just on the motor! :evil:

haha. I was wondering. Sounds good - i'm strapped at the moment, but sometime soon I will probably start a motor like that, as I'm doing a frame-up on my KZ very soon. I'll probably contact you and get some more detailed info on that motor... sounds like a lot of fun.

ive got that motor sitting in corner i took it out when i started the turbo project .i think ill save it for the 78 a2 when i pull it out of the ol mans basement where its been entombed for last 20 years!:evil:

yeah, that sounds like fun!

i need to get a list of how/what i need/what to do from you... like an instruction manual... then I need to look for a parts bike to rob the motor off of and start this buggar up.
