    i head on eta block with i internals ?

    Is there any problems with shoving an 885 head on an eta block fitted with an i crank/pistons? I don't remember if theres oil differences between i and eta.

    you would just have an "i", in that case

    eta block = i block, for all intents and purposes

      Cool just making sure. an "i" motor is the goal. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't going to be any major problems with oil or coolant or something

        You will actually have better thrust bearings and 360 degree oiling grooves using the eta block (much better than the later "i" block)...but be sure if new bearings are ordered make sure they are for the eta block if you are changing them for new ones...
