Definitely keep us updated on that. There aren't nearly enough LC conversions here (1). Planning mechanical or electric water pump? What radiator? Placement?

can you even run a LC head on a AC motor? There is no water jackets on the block. no place to mount water pump.

great questions!
only then cylinder is cooled by liquid, there are to pump options first is a pump that is ran off the stator flywheel. second is a electric pump.

What he said. The swap of the cylinder itself is pretty simple and the installation of an electric or crank driven pump isn't too bad either. The part that I think keeps a lot more people from doing it is having to find a place to mount a radiator and route the hoses.

Oh and I was thinking of YZ and Snowmobile engines that the block is also cooled I guess this is not.
