I need some advice, was looking to do the bmw twin cam conversion but the heads seem few and far between.

Then I heard about a similar conversion using a Honda bike head.

Can anyone provide more info on this?

What kind of machining is required to the block on would an 850 or 998 be suitable?

Is there a write up or build log around somewhere?

Yes, there is a build log.

The SEARCH function is quite handy for finding things like that.

the development has come light years further than that engine. everytime I make something I always find a better/easier way of doing it and learn from my mistakes.
