All .75 fifth gears fit a 4k?

[fahrvergnugen at cox.net (David Utley)]

I have a 4K with the .75, and a 2.0 ABA with a G60 head, stock CIS 
injection.  Thing is, it is being put together now, so I can't comment 
on how good it goes just yet...  :-(

G/L with your project.  I will post up on here when I finish mine and 
let you know how it goes...
