Will a fan shroud from a 1200cc fit the cylinder covers for a 16 twin?
cylinder covers ^^^^
and will the surrounding tinware (around the engine itself) fit a 1600cc twin port?
Nope - not without some pretty serious mods. Although the shroud will physically fit the cylinder tins OK, a 1600 has a different oil cooler setup
that a non 1600 shroud won't fit over. (btw the 1600 oil cooler setup is known as a doghouse)
Front and rear tins are also different - there's a hole for ducting for the doghouse on the 1600 version, and also about 4 different versions of the
different bits based on exhaust and crank pulley setup, air ducting etc.
Why do you want to do this - is it just to have the different look of the curved 36hp style shroud ??? If so you can buy aftermarket 36hp style
shrouds that fit a doghouse and the standard 1600 cylinder tins...
Yea i saw them one cip1 i want to save as much money as possible (i'm a student and have no money) i'm looking at 1600 TP without tin ware, and i have a complete 1200 40horser thought that some of the tin ware might be interchangeable. I am however going to buy a new dog house, but wondering how much other tin ware i'll need for it to fit & cool right, and what i can take off the 1200
no they wont fit
it would actually but whats stopping it is the oil cooler
u would have to either fit a single port oilcooler which is a massive step backwards or go with a remote cooler
dads motor is setup like that

Oh cool, thanks guys. I've just found out that the 1200 i have is a "late" 1200, and that it would fit the dog house and fit onto a 1600, cool huh,
well thats what my mechanic told me.
my question now is: will that "later" 1200 tin ware (namely the cylinder covers) fit or are worth modifying to fit the twin port inlet manifolds?
