My 54 oval project is on the way. At this moment I have no motor. I have two options for 36 hp but i am considering the possibility of putting later motor in my oval.
The question is what is the way of installing, for example, 1300 motor and keeping split case transmission .Is there any mismatching among this tranny and 1300/1600 motor. I know that this question has already been asked but I haven’t seen the straight answer. Do I just put motor and that is it?

Any motor will fit unto the early transmission. The main thing is the flywheel. If it's 6v, then it's a direct fitament. If you're using a 12v flywheel, some clearancing will be needed on the bellhousing of the trans.
