If its an issue you can swap sumps over. The newer engines run a pressed metal sump and the one your machine needs is the cast one as its used as a mounting point. Thats my only concern. I was told by my dealer not to go higher than a 1.9 litre as it can over heat the pumps with the extra power as the engine won't bog down when under load so you know its straining. If the sump is an issue you can do what i did and weld 2 pieces of flat to the rear mount so you bolt to the engine block instead of the sump.I believe these series engines are all the same physical size and mount, they just have different bore and stroke sizes. Even a V2203 i have here looks almost identical to the V1702, just VERY minor changes to the front alloy housing.Do you know how many hours it has done? you don't want to buy another engine to find its not suitable either.</blockquote>
