    I am building a ground up bike and found an engine I would like to purchase but cannot seem to find info on exactly what it is.
    The only numbers on the cases are the same on both sides. There are no signs of tampering or grinding to change or cover anything.
    The numbers are X8186 with a star before and after the number. The engine also has tall, dual plug, aluminum cylinder heads,and domed pistons with valve reliefs. It is EVO style.
    Any help or direction is very appreciated.
