    I think Tom is trying that and Eric has more than likely done that. I know most engines will physically fit, you may have to make some of your own mounting brackets. '83 is the best year to get if you can. they made some changes that eliminated issues with the earlier 80-82 engines. Why the change and why not a 1000 8v engine? The electronic and carbs are basically the same and may be a bolt in option.

      I just wanted the biggest engine in the GS series if it was possible.
      Think the 750 is a bit weak.
      If major changes is nessesery its a no go.
      The 1100 has Electronic egnition am i correct?
      Must also be with Chain drive to the back wheel.

      Dont want a 8v..

        Yes, you'll need the electronics to go with it, but the 1150 is the biggest in the GS line up, unless you move on to the Bandit 1200 and 1250 motors. They are easier to get.
