Not VMX related but I am trying to get my Suzuki A100 project on the road. Just wondering if it is a good idea to use 2 different case halves from different years, even if they do fit over the dowls. Previous owner took it apart by hammering screw drivers between the cases but I have another motor with a good half that I need.

a case is a case is a case. truth be known the original cases most likely wernt made in the same year. Just be careful and examine them in detail to if they actually are the same cases. sometimes a small change can be a big issue later on in the rebuild. and dont believe part numbers they have ben wrong before.

Your a few weeks too late I had a complete gasket kit here for a A100 that someone left you could have had for nix. KTM are the only mass manufacturer I know of that has matched case halves

You can tig weld the chisel marks/dents an get the halfs milled flat and square.

Story of my life, just missed out. Previous owner really did a number on this one with pieces missing, even pieces with bolt holes missing, hammered the flywheel and broke the end of the crank, butchered the stator with screw drivers and the flywheel is still on there so I needed the spare motor anyway. Plus this way I keep the left side with the original engine number. Clutch cover fits perfectly over the dowels on both motors so that's a good sign.
