GS1000e/GS1100e engine swap
For some reason the site will not let me search for anything today. I am reassembling my 79 gs1000. I used to have a 4v gs1100 motor in it. Put a spare 4v GS1100 engine in it today for a mock up and to find parts that have been sitting for 25 years. I dont remember it going in this hard. Thought it was a straight swap, with only 2 motor mounts that needed to changed. Are there any links that someone could provide me as my search is playing games? Or does someone know of somebody who has done this and maybe has some mounts made and some recent knowledge.
