Random question, Will a k1100 16v head work on a small bore if you use 68mm Pistons? Seeing as they both run 1275 head gaskets? |

I don't know but I would guess yes. Pistons may need valve clearance but I think it would be a fun little engine. A follow up question: What is a safe rev limit of a 68mm 998 crank engine? |

yes will be fine,,, however,,, you will need to pay attention to the cyl head fittment if you shuffle the cyl head over to the dist/alt side of the block a few mm, then you will have less drama with the new head stud holes interfering with the side plate area & water jacket joining, (it`s a bit hard to explain typing it really) if you imagine fitting the cyl head in the spot that the "usual" 3 front head stud holes line up to,,, then when drilling the rear (exh side) stud holes you will most certainly break into """Both""" the side plate area """&""" the water jacket it`s not a pretty thing really yes, we`ve done it so we have shuffled the head across a few mm toward the alternator/distributor side & off-set the bore (& oversized) to align with the cyl head chambers,,, & off course you`ll need to bung up """all""" the head stud holes & re-drill them """all""" to cater for the new position i can show you way more easier than describing it tho but yes once that lot is sorted then fly-cut pistons, sort your compression ratio etc & away you go we have our own twinky head gaskets in stock for these Matt 0407135656 oh & we`ve had small bore engines screaming to 8000 rpms with these heads fitted |
