22G68/ 970 crank

Post by swifty »

Hi , will a 970s crank turn in 22G68 gearbox casing without any mods to the gearbox case . I think it will because of the shorter stroke but would like to check with other members that have used the same kombo

I have seen a 1071 on this gearbox , running complete unit so cannot say if the front of case was ground out to clear the rods
