Cylinder Head Swap
Do any of you know if a 2004 ZX12 Cylinder Head can be used on a 2001 ZX12? What are the differences between the two. The parts catalog shows different part numbers for the valves & Cams. If any of you have some info please share, I am trying to get my bike running again before the next race ( two Weeks).
Thanks in Advance!

Does anyone have a Cylinder Head for an 01 ZX12 in decent condition that they would be willing to sell?

you just have to drill and tap the later style head for the motor mounts. the place is still there, just not finished(driiled and tapped) a machine shop can easily do this. the rest is the same

the early style head would require a custom fabbed motor mount to fit the later style bikes

Kawpower I have a 01 and have a 02 bottom end no problem except the site glass and I think that has something to do with the screws fitting and the 02 has larger oil runners in the bottom thats all I noticed.
