Hi All
I have a 1983 Big Red 200E that apparently has an engine knock. I say apparently as I haven't heard it run, but purchased it from a friend for $120. I have a Honda 200M engine that is waiting to be used.
Question 1: Can I use parts from inside the 200M to possibly rebuild the 200E engine?
Question 2: Would it be better to just swap the 200E engine out directly for the 200M engine?
The original engine on the Big Red has high/low range plus reverse, so obviously if I can rebuild the old engine with the 200M parts, it would be a better end result for usage.
Thanks!
