Cam chain Slap - FSE 400

[cal_tony]

For those that asked, yes the DRZ Manual Cam chain tensioner from the ThumperTalk site store is a direct fit.

Something I have not done however is to install any of the other DRZ head parts that I also think will fit the GG 4 stroke. These would include the 400 piston, valves, cam chain,cams,guides,springs, head cover and gasakets. The next time I take the head off my DRZ I will check to see if it also will fit the GG 450. Some of the external holes are different (oil pressure hole and water intake hole) but it seems that all the internals are identical. When I looked at the Head drawings from the GG manual and the DRZ manual, it looked like GG just copied the pictures from the DRZ manual.

Hey Tony,

I followed the link but I have a couple of questions. I bought an APE tensioner off a forum member here that 'would' with a 400. However, when I took the old tensioner off, the barrel that fits into the head was way narrower on the APE tensioner than the stock one and the 2 holes for the bolts were also too close together by about 4mm. I emailed him about it and he said someone sold him it saying it was a direct fit - Same as a Hayabusa.

I'd buy one tomorrow if it fits, but the link on thumper talk shows a tensioner with a similar sized barrel to the APE one I already have and also says it fits a Hayabusa! So, I'm wondering if the one I already have is the same fit as the one on thumper talk or whether that picture isn't representative of the actual tensioner for sale?

Thanks
Luke
