96 600cc engine fit a 95 501cc chassis ?

Hey guys, I was curious what the cross over years are on the older models. I am wanting to put a 1996 600cc engine on my 1995 FE501 chassis. Should I expect issues or is it pretty much a direct mount from one to the other ?

Awesome ! Thanks.
Can you please tell me where I can find information on the older models, model numbers, engine sizes, years etc ? I’ve tried looking around but I must not have the correct terminology.

Well, this 600cc engine has the electric start on it and is not wanting to fit in the chassis. Are there different chassis for the electric start engines ? Looks like I’m gonna have to find a metal fabricator around town.

Also I found out this engine is a 98.

so you didn't mention the small detail of a phuqing great starter motor on the front and couldn't just simply see that it wasn't going to fit?

dear oh dear!!!!!

this is top level stuff ifn't it, and not waisting anyone's time that tries to help you of course?

forget it. just forget it. you want a 600, swop the crank assembly, barrel, camchain.

yours (exasperatedly)
