Engine cases come in two sizes: long and short.
The Chinese use a combination of the 2 frame sizes, and case lengths, to make different wheelbase scooters.
That's excellent information Reveeen. In your studied opinion, if I found a 6' Chinese 50cc scooter, would it likely accept a 150cc GY6? Since a 150 Elite engine would fit into any Chinese scooter, does that mean that a 150cc GY6 would fit into a small frame 50cc Chinese scooter?
