Blackbird Engine in a Blade?

After Marj's and Chills' posts earlier I'm wondering what I need to alter/keep to stick a Blackbird lump in my Blade.

Cheers

There was an article about the lifetime of the blade in Bike mag a few months ago, and a guy in there fitted a 'bird engine to his 'blade. He said you have to move one engine mounting point and add a bigger radiator. I'll see if I can dig out the article.

The reason why it fits is because the blackbird engine is virtually a bored out blade engine from what they said in the article.

As I said I'll dig it out for you

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

The guy who actually owns the 'Firebird' is from Nottingham. It's been resprayed metallic orange and is one serious piece of kit, think he had it dyno'd at about 165bhp at the rear wheel.

There is an article in this month's Performance Bikes about someone who is trying to put a Blackbird Engine in a CB1000.
