Since your motorcycle engine is air cooled, by design has lots of surface area. You will certainly need a large setup and a very large power supply. If your only doing this one engine, it will be a lot cheaper to have it done commercially.

1. Ask Honda, the commercial anodizer will want to know this too.
2. I don't know, Caswell will have to answer that.
3. That depends entirely on the surface area of each engine block half. You can forget any size battery charger.
4. When I was young and indestructible, I had a '72 Kawasaki Z1. That 900cc 4 cylinder DOHC "road rocket" had a black anodized block.
