    Shoot I'm using copper gaskets. It will leak a little. Oil that is.
    I use copper gaskets & if they are put together correct, they don't leak! The head on my dragbike motor has been on since 2004 & still no leaks! Looking good Bill but I have a question for you. If you were paying to have the upper case half bored, why didn't you have it bored to clear 1327 or 1400 sleeves? It would've cost the same but if you decide to go bigger later you will have to pay to have it done again. I ask just because I'm curious. It would have no detrimental effects on the motor if the upper case were bored bigger than needed. When I have any bored, I have them done to 1428 sleeve diameter unless I am going 1500 or bigger. Keep up the good work & remain PATIENT!!! Ray.

      I plan on doing this to the ED motor. This is my street motor and I don't plan on doing anymore to it.

                NOPE! thats as big as it gets for a 1150 cylinder. You have to get a monster block after that.

                  Kris, you can sleeve a stock 1150 block to 1260 or 1327 both. Same sleeve for both, just over bore for the 1327. APE P/N for the sleeve is KA773. Ray.

                      Yeah, it's pretty much either a drag race only or street race short run deal. I did do a 1327 1150 block for a guy in Hawaii that rode on the street but it would run warm in traffic! Ray.

                          This is really the worst fight scene of all time (or if not, it's damn close):

                              Wait, that was a real movie?? I kept waiting for the chick to show up and the two dudes to start railing her in classic porno style... Then when that didnt happen I started to think someone posted a male on male porno... and THEN the chick showed up, so I thought ok, here we go.. but no.. That was AWFUL... didnt the producers of this crap realize, hey, this is awful?? Probably not. They were probably all jacked up on coke and thought it was the best thing ever.. Though i gotta admit, the "being hung by your eye socket from a crane" bit was pretty cool... And, im sorry, but if I get in a fight that results in my eye ball hanging on a rusty nail in the wall.. Im done, good fight, i gotta see the ER doctor now..
