a guy just offered this to me tonight and the wheels in my little melon started spinning. they are off of an 09, but i know that my motor an 02 has a strong bottom end was wondering what it would take to build it.
the guy want 200 for jugs, pistons, heads

i would need flywheel, rods, pistons?

Later 96" and 110" heads have a dirrerent motor mount setup.

The engine mount set up on late model bikes has no effect on them fitting earlier bikes. It is just a tapped machined area the can be easily disguised put a couple of chrome cap screws in and nobody gives it a second look.

Depending on the mileage of the new jugs you might get by with just a hone job or still pretty cheap to go one size over on your new pistons.

Head volumn does not change cubic inch displacement as we measure it in all engines; bore and stroke are the determining factor of CID . In a non technical way to say, flow does matter , compression ratio also , and on and on and on . It's fun to tweek ur bike perfomance ; but you're probably getting less than a big bang for the buck doing much with your heads and not your CID also.
Jukin My SG to 103 and a tune has been a plus .
Have fun !

Install a set of bolt in cams, say Andrews TW26 or TW37, fuel management system/tune or rejet if carbed and you will notice a big difference in performance. Change inner cam bearings when replacing cams and install new tensioners. The chain is already "polished" and a new set of tensioner shoes should last a long time.

You can't use the rods or pistons but $200 for cylinders and heads is a bargain. If you don't want the deal, let me know.

That's a smoking deal. I'd be all over that in a second.
