    So... more HP than a new V9 and definitely better looking.

    Nice job and well done all around.
    I'm happy with my GuzziTech re-mapped V 7 and don't lust for more.
    For those who want it it sure looks like the package to get, though. I get "too much is just enough" though!

    Why ain't you on the east coast???

    If I didn't hate flying I'd jet out there for a play day.

    Wife is flying out over xmas to see her people & I'm not going because they all know I don't fly.....now I really can't go..BAH!!

    It's a quick flight, just red-eye so you can sleep with a sedative. It'll be worth it.
    Yes, stock cam. I left it once I saw the dyno results of @mwrenn's 750-4V. Impressive if you haven't seen it HERE

    Should have mine on the dyno once I sort the fueling next week and get a few miles on it.

    Off subject but do you ever sell off any of your rental units? i'd love to have a GuzziTech V7 or Racer that had been tweaked by you.

    Thanks @rbm - and yes I sure do, however I usually have a few people in line who ask the same. I'll post as a link to the Auction page when the next one is up for sale. Likely when the V9 lands.

    Hi, it's possible to read and see what pieces have been used for this kit and maybe some photos?

    Bigger pistons, OK but which type, made by who? Etc

    4 valves, OK, but dimension, material, producer etc?

    The head has been modified for the 4 valves, OK but still remain a flat heron or has been re-engineered an emispheric head?

    Moreover, in the '80, first the Lario and then the V75 had 4 valves (as you know) with lower displacement of this kit but with higher power, is strange... Isn't it?
    They had problem with valves (too soft) and spring valves (too stiff) but with modern production and materials could be easily resolved.

    Probably this my, could appear a bit critic, but I'm a big fan of Guzzi and I really appreciate every job that will improve the small block.

    Any thought on the price point for the whole kit? Does it come with everything needed to turn a V7 into a V8-Quatro?

    Dan, yes it does. Approximate cost is $3500 outside of labor. Interest has been so minimal that I haven't ordered another run of pistons yet. Contact me direct email; Todd at GuzziTech.com

    See mwrenn's post for most of your questions; https://www.guzzitech.com/forums/threads/new-v7-with-4v-heads.14276/

    I can't/won't divulge everything in my kit, but it is turn key outside of labor and some very minor machining work for installation.

    Not finished completely yet as I'm sure I can achieve 60 rwhp as it is a zero-mile motor and I have some work left to do on the mapping, but here it is for now... red trace is a stock V7, blue is Mike's 750-4V and the green is my 820-4V. That is a ~65%+ increase in power and ~70% torque over stock.
