    Compatibility - Cylinder Heads ? ? ?

    How compatible are the various GS heads? Can you put an 850 head on a 1000? Is it possible to fit a 16 valve head to a GS1000 motor that originally had the 8 valve head?

    PISTONS ARE NOT NOTCHED PROPERLY FOR ONE THING--ARE YOU JUST LOOKING FOR MORE POWER?????

      The 850/1000 question was coz I have access to a fully rebuilt 850 head for next to nothing, and the 1000 needs a new one.
      The 16 valve bit was if the 850 wouldn't fit, why not go for the power?

        Heads 82 / 79

        Will a 1982 850 head fit on a 1979 850 head.
        If not , will the carb bank from a 82 fit on a 79
        I am weighing my options in preparation for my winter work. :twisted:
