Has anybody done it?

I've got a 78 100RS thats in several large parts waiting for restoration. I love the heavy flywheel engines so I'm going to fit the engine and gearbox in my 100PD this winter. I know the engine and box will got straight in but I'm not sure if the RS oil thermostat will clear the frame. Anybody know if it will?
 
HPN do a Thermostat is it the same sort of size as early BMW?

Have you got a pic for comparison
 
One of my mates has a Accident damaged r100r para frame lying in his garage Rob ,probably get it for you for pennies if you need a test bed for your project
 
When the PD bikes had their engine shifted accross to the right they had a flat put into the frame to clear the oil filter cover maybe you could do that if it didnt fit.
 
Engine swop

Well Rob, as you're obvioulsy bored and insulted me earlier, come and swap my brake cable:D

I am so jealous of people with garages:drool
