    need tech help!

    Looking for a little help
    I have a '78 GS550 (rear drum model) and am considering
    the purchase of an '82 GS550 (also rear drum model).
    Will the motor of the '82 fit in the frame of the '78.

        Thanks for the help gents!
        Anything else I should look for when mounting the '82 motor in the '78 frame?
        What else can be swapped between the two bike?
