@GoBlessYourSelf not sure if you can replace for a smaller engine, because they changed the mounting bars for the 2.0. I would just get a good rebuild for that, I have heard that the 2.0's are great, but I am partial to the 1600 upright because of the access, availability of parts, and the classic nature of it, lol.
Nice '71 ;)

@Bronson1886 now's a good time to get them! parts are easy to find, and usually pretty cheap. get on Craigslist and start searching!
