C100 Motor Swap

Recommended Posts

Krice58

Got an M12 and k301 off of some beat up 312-8s. Looking at a C100 8 speed, it’s my understanding that at least the K301 should both right up with no modifications. Is this the case? What about the M12? Thanks!

M-12 will bolt on but will require re wiring to work on  C-100

And a different ignition switch too. You would be going from battery ignition to magneto ignition...

The K 301s on 312's may have a different charging system. I know my 1985 312-8 has a 3 amp. charging system with AC lights. What I see in 1986  electric wiring diagrams the 1986 is the same.

Adding a kill relay is all that would be needed for the Magnum swap, everything else would remain the same.

Good point, the engine Spec Number would be the best way to find out.
