Need a new engine
09/27/17 2:30 PM

Hey guys, I need a new engine for my 07 ZX14. I've found an 08, but does anyone know if it's a direct swap?

Thanks in advance!

The original ZX-14 Gen 1 engine was obviously the 2006. Some slight changes and improvements were then made in 2008. Then came the redesigned 2012 Gen 2 engine.
So your 2006 engine can be replaced with a 2007 to 2011 engine.
From memory the only thing to look out for is a slight increase in header pipe diameter where your slip on pipes fit onto.
See the below link.
