I'd like to find either a complete G-26 Zenoah. New or used

Or, I'd like to find the parts necessary to convert my G-23 to a G-26

As far as I know a new cylinder, a ring and a piston out of the G-26 will fit into the G-23 and update it to the G-26.

If someone knows (For sure) that this is not possible. Could you give me a shout and I'll regroup and try a different approach.

I'd rather not finish up my project with the standard G-23

Thanks in advance for your time in answering...........Dave

NOTICE,.....................I'm past this point now, Not looking any longer Thankyou for reading.............Dave

Right now, Hanson has found the combo to make the G26h run pretty smooth...If you do one yourself (I done one) You are going to have to take some weight off the topend, inorder for the 231 crank to work...On the PUH design, Zenoah just added a bigger piston to the 231 crank.. duh, it will shake in stock form big time.
I just got through building another engine using a different approach than Hanson, but I do recommend his engines...He done a good job considering what he had to work with.. If you are going to do just scale, then the 231 is up to the task, and is super smooth...
For all out 3D, this Hanson G26H is doing a fine job right now...It has the power...
Good luck,
