Cheapest engine I could find at a breakers is £450, and that is a 2000 model. The 2002 model had improved cams/timing to improve midrange.

I think that I will need to buy the cheap engine and fit the 2002 cams that I have, or pay £650 for a 2002 engine.

Not happy. Sad

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

Really? Looks like it's smashed the valves to bits and embedded them into the piston crown.
