    cylinder compatability

    I think I read somewhere at one time that the 16 valve cylinders would fit/drop onto the case of the 8 valve engine. I mean the complete cylinder assembly, not just the liner.

    Is this correct?

    Thanks

    I would rather trust my bike to a technician that reads the service manual than some backyardigan that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix things.

    I am going to guess you are asking about an 1100, because that is what is in your signature, but it's just a guess.

      The bolt patterns and oiling are quite different.

        Oops, yup, need an 1100 2 valve block for big bore 1000 project.

        There are plenty of the 16 valve blocks but few 8 valve blocks kicking around up here in Canada..

        Guess I misread then
