    Hello,

    I have a 1983 750vf that I need to replace the engine. The guy at salvage yard said I could replace it with a '84 700 vf engine. Just wondering if this is indeed the case and if so should i be aware of any installation issues. Any answers you can give would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks
