Probably a little cheaper to rebuild old motor but ZZ4 comes practically complete and with a warranty.

Re: What's in a ZZ4? (Koz)
ZZ4 has a 4 bolt main, forged steel crank, Hypereutectic pistons, cam specs: hydraulic roller cam Lift .474" intake, .510" exhaust. Duration @ .050: .208° intake, .221° , L98 almuminum heads.
Those are some damn fine internals that can be had for about $3,400. Hard to build a motor yourself with forged steel crank, aluminum heads and roller cam for less. Also, don't forget the 1 year warranty on the ZZ4.

What kind of power can you expect from a ZZ4 with an average street aluminum intake and a 650 double pumper? Or does a ZZ4 come with intake and carb?

Re: What's in a ZZ4? (Cruzmeisters)
Comes with intake, but no carb; comes with spark plugs, but no wires; comes with long shaft water pump, you need "short shaft"; comes with flex-plate for auto trannies, "sticks" need a different flywheel. Also needs starter and fuel pump. Am I correct, Oh Wiser Gear-Heads? :confused:
