i've got a dart engine in a 1976 350 drum braked sport , it fits perfectly , i did not modify the frame.
the original ducati ignition even fits.
just one of the front brackets between the engine and the frame needs modifying to clear the starter motor.
nice to have a reliable electric start by the way
This sounds like the pre K frame which has more space in front of the engine. As you probably know, the German Morini's club magazine - La Strega - had a good article on how to fit the engine in the pre-K frame, and the UK club's magazine has several articles from Ian who ended up moving the rear engine mounts back to accommodate the engine with the Kokusan system and starter motor in a pre-K frame. The K frame makes the challenge significantly harder!
Do you have a link tò check?
I've asked the author of the article and he's happy for you to contact him directly by email. I'll send you a private message (pm) with his email address. He's happy to help with the translation of the German for you too.
