Title: what motor is this in my 850-t?
Post by: troyhamilton on July 20, 2017, 12:05:47 PM: I was told it was a 850 motor with a big bore kit? not sure. according to my freind at the machine shop the bore is 3.462 or 84 mm and the bottom bore is close to 88 mm. or 3.4646 reason im asking is i need a cyl due to rust from getting water inside and ruining the cyl. engine is stamped vc 092410 looks factory. thanks

Barrels and pistons, tappets, maybe a cam, cam retainer plate, valves, seals and gaskets. My guess is there won't be much of the original engine left by the time you've fixed it.
