Gonnna take a few months for this one i may have a kit in the bike by winter! due to racing it has been on the back shelf but i have most of the parts i need to do a kit for myself. If i could find the crank im looking for i could have a 560cc bike! The madness continues!!! Cheers

Yowza, so a 442cc just wasn't enough eh? Good luck, who knows maybe you'll end up with a bike more tricked out than some of the FZR400s out there!

any idea on a price for the full kit? and how do you get a 400cc to 560cc????? sorry if I sound dumb but I'm new to bikes.

well this kit is gonna be like a 1000.00 it requires you to send me the cylinder and i have new sleeves put into your cylinder and the pistons that go in it are like 4.5 mm over or something like that. but i want to get one in first to make sure i have no heat issues. to get 560cc's there is a crank out there from another bike that strokes the 460 kit to 560cc that im sure will produce some heat and require a bigger radiator i would say that that would be for race purposes only as you would have to maintain the bike more often . but if you are looking for good streetable power with out the hassle of all the matainance the 442cc kit would be good for you. And wiesco is making the piston for the 465 so i have to come up with a chunk of change first for the first run.

what kind of power is to be expected from the 442cc and the 465cc kits?

gsxr400 racer · « **Reply #5 on:** May 31, 2006, 09:04:37 PM »

70 and 80hp

So you get a 8 mm longer stroke. How are you going to deal with the cylinder head?
