badgerkdd Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Early non V V B4 engine should fit size wise, I think they shared a few components? You might have to check the mountings / loom connections though? Might be a bigger ball ache than just getting a second hand Gsxr400 engine. Why not look at putting in a 600 Gsxr engine instead, they might be cheaper then the 400 due to more available from written off front end shmashes etc. Again don't know about size but I know the bandit engine had a bit of space around it in the frame.

Kristjan Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 From the outside, B400 and GSX-R400 engines seem to be very much the same, but availability is the other thing. Quote Link to comment
banoffee Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 Didn't someone fit an oil cooled 750 lump into a GK76A some years ago? Quote Link to comment
badgerkdd Posted August 16, 2015 Share Posted August 16, 2015 I imagine someone has done Quote Link to comment
