Swapped head from 74-77 which oil jets should i use? 74 750k
« on: March 31, 2012, 09:53:20 AM »
I put a 77k head on my 74k (750) I am using the stock cam blocks from the 74. Should i use the 77 oil jets or put the 74 oil jets in the 77 head? Im talking about the oil jets in the head under the cam blocks. thanx

Are they different? I didn't think so.  I'll go check some microfishies.

Yep same #. I must have got confused because Hondaman is making over sized jets. Looks like a classic case of being lazy on my part.

No problem. If clean, and you have no high performance need, then no need for oversize. Though they would be neat.
