[CrazyDudeWithARolla]

hi,I'm new to this site...and was hoping i could get some tips and info for my ke70. so i was planning on using the stock 4k engine but change to 5k engine block and piston and still using the 4k head...is this okay?...and about the exhaust for a i.3L/1.5L...is a 2 1/4" size good? or just a plain 2" is good enuff? and what about the piping?...oh ya...and using a 4 throttle on the k-series engine is it possible? if so...what is needed to modified in-order to install it?

U can run cbr1000x carbs off a Honda motorcycle

You would need a custom manifold but they are easy

But you need to find someone to tune them

It'll depend on what kind of pistons you have too. Dished or flat and also the corresponding head. I have a flat top piston 5k with a dished piston 4k head in the build. Depends if you want to run boost or sc it also. I may also be doing the bike carb thing but its a definite maybe as my cash flow is very tight ATM.

For starters break the post up...... My brain hurts

 

If you just got fired from your job IMHO I wouldn't be doing anything but driving your 70

 

2 and a 1/4 is the biggest you need for a k motor

 

You can run quad throttles but how much money do you have for a custom manifold, then fuel system?

 

Why not save ya moneys and buy a 4age before you think about doing much more to your k motor, than an exhaust and webber

my goodness "XD" annoyes me.....

 

as stated....too many questions.

 

if you were going to go 4age, just wait untill you get a new job and do it.

 

unless you spend a bucket load on your 4k, i don't think you can get near the reliable power that a 4age can give you.

 

also i think you don't want to go any bigger than 2" on a 4k, even 1.75 will probably be big enough.

Just bore your 4K and fit 5K round-dish pistons. Have it sonic tested first. Measure the head volume and calculate the compression ratio before you go skimming the head. That way you keep all the 4K solid pushrod gear.

 

and about the exhaust for a i.3L/1.5L...is a 2 1/4" size good? or just a plain 2" is good enuff? and what about the piping?

2" for 1500cc should be fine. I use 2" extractors & 1&3/4" after the resonator on a 4K. You are fitting extractors aren't you?? ...and a hot cam?? and a reworked distributor, or are you wasting your time??

 

and using a 4 throttle on the k-series engine is it possible? if so...what is needed to modified in-order to install it?

Plenty on google..

Good incentive to find a job. Someone will be happy to buy your half-converted rolla for two loaves of bread and a slab of beers in two months.
