kwak engine rebuild it looks like

[pugeyed 0]

so i bought this project for summat to rebuild a kawasaki kz750 h3 1982
engine unknown history but doesnt look like its done many miles but couple of exhaust studs snapped in head, and saw this "rebuilt" one on evil bay.
Great i thought save me the bother of rebuilding the one that came in the bike.
had a more closer look at the one from ebay 2nite and no 1 bore is seized solid. and would need a rebore/ new sleeve and the cam cap on the exhaust cam has been threaded and scored the cam at the same time.
so head and barrel are now scrap
back to square one.
gonna use the best bits of the engine i bought ie crankcases, but just means more work and more money, might as well put bearings in it if ive gotta swap the crankcases over.
ho hum
Rant over
