1425cc, or 1428, depending on who you buy the kit from. 83mm. Stock KZ1000 is 70mm, stock KZ900 is 66mm. It takes some machining on the cases to get the sleeves to fit. And of course this is an aftermarket block with MTC pistons.

Just a street engine. That's why the domes are so small. He hasn't decided on cams yet. Don't need to go with bigger valves. Not worth the big expense for the street. He'll still have well over a grand just in the head with some port work, heavy springs, probably new guides, shim under buckets, cams, SS valves. :orange dancr
