Engine parts options
Posted: Thu Sep 24, 2020 8:23 pm
Hi all,
I’ve recently brought a 1995 zxr400 with a dead engine.
A conrod has let go and caused a fair bit of damage. I am going to fit a 2nd hand engine just to get it running and the n repair the original engine or keep any salvageable parts.
The parts I require are as follows
Conrods
Cylinder head
Pistons
Cylinder liner
Seals, bearings and gaskets
Now what are my options?
I was hoping for genuine standard parts but they seem to be discontinued. I can’t find pistons, liners, or conrods. I was hoping to get 1 replacement liner and then replace all conrods and pistons. Loads of 2nd hand parts but I want to fit new to try and prevent any future failures, that’s why I want to replace as a set and not just the one that failed etc. Is there any good brand replacements Parts without doing big bore conversion etc
Also any recommendations for a good engineering company in or near Sussex to replace the cylinder liner
Thanks
Gavin
