    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.

top end rebuild kit for a 1981 gs 1100?

john,
was you running a totally stock engine with the turbo set up?
to my knowledge the parts for a stock engine has to be bought individually...not in a kit form.
rings/clips/head/base ect..
i'd recommend a nice used 1166 kit and HD studs at a minimum.
valve job and so on.
let me know if i can help with anything.
 
Thanks for the reply. Just no searching now. An 83 motor may be a better candidate, but I could have the crank on mine welded. Hmmmm.
 
Does the 1166 kit require cylinder boring? Do the gs cylinders need replacing if bored out?
 
The 1166 kit is a 3mm overbore for the 1100 engine. Makes a GREAT motor too. 3mm over is as much as you can overbore most stock Suzuki blocks & they still have plenty of wall thickness. The 1150 cylinders will make a 1229 for an 1100 when bored the same 3mm bigger, more fun still!
Ray.
