Will a 360 motor from a VA fit in a V75 frame?

The VA 360 motor will fit in the V75 frame as well as the VR's.

No 360's. Difficult motor to come by since they only made them one year. I have one that I'm making
a flat tracker out of. Of course you could buy my excellent condition VA 360 for $3600.00  :)

The early model 360's that had the clutch mounted on the crankshaft were problematic.
After mid year when the clutch was mounted on the primary shaft,end of problems.
