    A Special Note about Email accounts!
    DO NOT SIGN UP USING hotmail, outlook, gmx, sbcglobal, att, bellsouth or email.com. They delete our forum signup emails.

    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

i have had way to many 80-82 pass through me that had damage to the crank taper.
this goes for the 83 1100 katana also...yes they have a small taper and bastard size rotor/stator even though the engine in an 83 and black.
worry more about the taper than the twisting IMO.

I bought a modified 1150 block with 1327 pistons. At the same time I had the chance to buy a big end crank with the correct parts to use in my 1100 case. I passed as I didn't know the small end was such an issue.

After hearing that the small end is even more of a weak point than the non-welded crank I wish I had picked up the big end crank.

Well, when I get back on the job I'll have to add a big end crank to the list...

As I'll have to get into the cases anyway I'd like to correct/upgrade any obvious weaknesses.

Thanks for the info...

I have 32 complete black motors, 14 83 1100 motors & 18 1150 motors. Plus enough parts to build at least 15 more complete motors. :D Anyone want 1150 heads, or built 1100 heads? I build to suit your combination.

At least he is on our side. And you never know when you might need a good black motor.
