I won a big block after market cylinder block off EBay. Only needed to be honed, haha. It showed up with one sleeve totally junk one more very questionable. Needs two sleeves or bore. Guy gave me a partial refund. My question is the block has only one id mark. It has an S on the center of the block. Any info would be great? Thank you

I have no idea, but I believe you will have better luck getting a response to this question if you could include some pics to help the guys visually ID the block in question...just saying. -
The S was for Suzuki. Probably used by the foundry so they knew which mold to use. In the day most all of the blocks were cast at the same place and rough machined at Sertco in Oklahoma. They would just add different brand tags when they were cast. Some were cast without a tag and were no name blocks.Comment

Teamdar, thanks for the reply. It came with JE pistons, from what I could find on the JE website the pistions are before 2004. Both the block and pistions are older.Comment

Bore size: 83.00 piston 82.7-82.6 at center of skirt. Pistons are marked JE 83mc4. Looking at the pistions they did not make the damage, looks it good usable condition. Not sure if these are corrct for this block?Comment

This was my first yr. Drag racing a motorcycle. I am truly hooked. Been buying and collecting parts all season. Been reading a ton of posts. Now I have enough parts to build two motors. I race more cars then bikes and I'm not a fan of Box racing, so I want to stay above 9 seconds. I have two 1100 motors. 1. 1170 kit 2. 1428 kit. I have welded crank with straight cut gear. Back cut trans. 38 lectrons. Lock up clutch. Have two heads. 750 dot head stock. Or 1988 gsxr 1100 ported 31mm in 26mm ex. Race head ready to go. Webcams 425 lift drag race cam. Choices, hahaComment
