fotoguzzi Posted March 31, 2010 Posted March 31, 2010 .. does the Quota motor use the same timing cover/frame mount as my 02 Lemans? If I had a cover from say an EV, could the motor be put in said EV frame? would the single TB with a pod filter fit w/in the tonti frame and still fit a battery? have you done it? show me pic please. would it be better to use a loop frame?

You need a Tonti timing cover to fit a Tonti frame. No space in a Tonti for the Quota throttle body and surely not with a filter on top. I put my Quota motor in a loop frame and had barely enough space to fit a flat K&N filter. The loopframe has a different timing cover so I ended up making spacers to fit the loop frame, no big deal.

Oh, Ok, thanks for that clearing that up. but I'm off the idea now as your pics helped me visualize the air intake situation..I wish I had the bucks and time to do a project w/the Q but can't fit it in... wouldn't that make a cool BOAT motor or trike or dune buggy?
jrt Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 TRIKE! like a Morgan. Ooooo, I want to do that so bad.....

docc Posted April 1, 2010 Posted April 1, 2010 TRIKE! like a Morgan. Ooooo, I want to do that so bad..... Oi! A moggie with a Guzzi motor! People (like us) who would want such a thing are just not entirely right!
fotoguzzi Posted April 1, 2010 Author Posted April 1, 2010 the complete motor w/alt, clutch, CPU, tranny etc is all for sale very reasonable.. on MGNOC want adds.
