In the interests of accuracy, I thinks it's just me spouting off about Carrabella's :wink:

IF it is a Carrabella(still a big 'if' at this piont :wink: ) a Honda CR engine should fit with little or no modification. But it would have to be an old air-cooled mill from the '70's. Hard to find and pretty peaky powerband. Air-cooled 2-strokes from the 70's are getting pretty hard to find around here, I don't know about South America, though.

Got a picture of this frame?
