| if you search back about three months you will find a number of posts on this topic- my memory is a little fuzzy, but i believe you will have to change the pressure plate and T/O bearing, otherwise the engine bolts right up. you may need an adapter to mount the rear engine cross member though, unless the engine case on the 1641 is a universal case with the tapped mounting bosses. the big thing is the topside cooling tin- http://www.aircooled.net sells a shrouding kit for the conversion, otherwise you could do some creative cutting fitting and welding. hope this helps. |
