Never tried that one but I have put some different engines in different chassis, including liquid engines in fan cooled chassis. Anything can be done.
Check its not taller for steering shaft clearance or if its wider, having to alter the frame is a job. After that, look at the location of the water hoses and besure the carbs will clear the tunnel. Read up to see if the pri. clutch offset is the same, or, if you have enough room to move things around to aline the clutches.You will probably have to re wire it, but reading both diagrams will get you through that
