Big +100 on that..Everything is interchangeable as long as you have the proper fuel delivery and free time to fiddle with it.
Biggest PITA for engine swaps is the charging system IMO.
I actually read through the threads about putting a testastretta in the desmo chassis. Very interesting and congrats on doing so! The 916 frame isn't as accepting of the testa engine though (compared to the R or the SPS frame) from what I've come to understand, or I'd consider that a future option as well.Big +100 on that..
We swapped a 999s engine into a 748R so it´s all doable. You can even put a 1098 engine in an early 748 if you want...

Right... the three stage vs. two stage correct? There is no simple way around it or easy way to swap one for the other?Everything is interchangeable as long as you have the proper fuel delivery and free time to fiddle with it.

No simple way as the crankshaft is different, best to use whatever alternator is on the engine and swap the regulator/rectifier if neccessary.Right... the three stage vs. two stage correct? There is no simple way around it or easy way to swap one for the other?
Easy answer is match donor bike to donor engine, i.e. keep 2-phase bikes 2-phase. Granted if you have mad skills and time you can upgrade a 2-phase to a 3-phase but I prefer not trying to ice-skate uphill... it's very tiring.Right... the three stage vs. two stage correct?

Guess I have some more reading to do. Looks like FBF is the source for eproms and PCs for the P8 then. As far as the swap I'll keep searching for what exactly it takes.Easy answer is match donor bike to donor engine, i.e. keep 2-phase bikes 2-phase.
