Hi new account and owner of two KZ400's. I decided to make an account here so I can share information and photos of my recent project. I'll start a thread about it and start sharing info and photos soon. 
Have a good evening,
Q

Thanks! I have a '74 KZ400 that was restored around 2016 and a 79 LTD that's mostly original except for non-LTD handlebars and normal maintenance items. Right now the engine from my 79 is getting built with 440 cylinders and oversize pistons, some head work, and other "while I'm there" things. Once the engine is finished it's going into the 74. The engine in that has serious blow-by and no compression in one cylinder (likely head gasket).
After the 74 is fully done then I'll start putting the 79 back together. Haven't worked out an exact plan for that yet but it won't be anything too involved since I intend to sell it when it's back in riding condition.
