So,I inherited a thoroughly mangled S3, with the ONLY part worth anything being the engine (don't ask me how THAT happened). I also have the possibility of hooking up with an XB roller that someone used for a chopper project. Can I install the engine in the XB frame? If so, are there any issues that need to be addressed?

I am going to let some one else confirm this but I am pretty sure a tuber engine will not fit mostly because of the cases being different in the back were the engine connects to the swing arm |

Firebolt is right, it won't bolt in because of the different mounting...HOWEVER, thats not something a little custom fab couldnt fix... ![](http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/clipart/biggrin2.gif) |

Seems like it'd be very easy to find an tuber roller on ebay since so many of those get converted to choppers. |
