Has anyone here run a set of VM27s on a KZ/GPz550? I need to know what intake manifold to run. Thanks.

I've never heard of VM27, but if they are the same series and spacing as a VM26 or VM28, they can't fit on a 550 as the spacing between cylinders is different on a 550 than a larger 4 cylinder.
321,000 miles on KZ's that I can remember. Not going to see any more.

No, not the same, Ron. These are specifically for the 550.
