The photo appears to be a KZ block, and the pistons are J model.

Spacer here;

If the pistons are for a J head, they would be part# K1106. The J motor has shorter rods, so the J pistons have the pin holes lower than regular KZs. If you put them in a motor with a KZ long rod crank, the pistons will hit the head.

You need a spacer plate under the block. .040" will work if you are using a base gasket on both sides. You can use .063" with no base gaskets.

Has the head been modified to use on the KZ style engine?

Will the 0.040 spacer on the KZ head and cylinder lower the compression with the J model pistons?

It's the stock head off a 76 KZ900 also the Pistons have 4549ps on them if that helps. Sorry for the confusion.
