I am going to be rebuilding the top end on my 200x and vealmonkey has suggested that I order this top end rebuild kit. Has anyone else ever bought one of these or could someone let me know if I should buy this? It sems like a good deal!:wondering

No core change... he just has to send in his old stuff first. Can't find a local shop to do your head? Also, what kind of standard piston is with the new head? I'd ask... want to make sure it isn't something cheap and thin which could burn up on ya.

I used one of his kits on my 1980 atc 185 two years ago with no problems. You can call him over the phone and talk to him personally. Very nice guy. If i remember the piston kit and valves were shindy, chain was a quality japanese piece, gaskets were kinda cheap looking but this thing ran as good as new when done and is still running great to this day. Simple way to get it in kit form. He can get you anything engine related if i remember correctly if you ask.

I have'nt ever bought one of those kits but I have used the seller to buy misc. motor items and found G&H store,to be a good e-bayer and professional !!

I used this place to do my 200sx and I was pleased with te service, first I sent off my cyl to them then they sent me one back all cleaned and blasted with new gaskets, piston, I lucked up and got a .70 over piston!!! made my sx really wake up!! and it got ridden hard form the get go!! sold the sx to an older man, and hes still tearing it up on it!! they use the wsm pistons, wich are a decent piston, factory spec type, but after doing some local research (as i have to do a top end on my 200x) a piston off of ebay will cost me rougly 50 bucks 20 for gaskets and local shop here bores for 50 so thats 120 with no other charges so I can make out better that way, but if you dont have a local shop that can bore worth a damn you will be better off just doing this deal.

I dont know man, they said one or 2 sizes over bore, but then when I got it thats what the box said and I mic'd the cylinder and it was bored out for that, so I guess I jsut lucked up
