Hi all, apologies if this topic has been brought up before, but I couldn't seem to find it by search. I'm thinking of transferring a 998 engine (deep sump) into my 748 frame. Firstly is this possible? If so, what things should I be worried/thinking about, ie ECU and wiring looms. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Rob
What sort of frame is it........ideally you want the R frame for air box clearance. this is my 1099 in a 748R frame..
It's just a 748s. Would a standard capacity airbox cause me too much grief, or is it still do-able? Loving the bike btw. fair play!
Lookie here young Padawan.... Hypersport with Evo engine (748/916/996/998 with 1098(R) 1198 engine) - Ducati.ms - The Ultimate Ducati Forum
thats a different ball game all together with that evo engine, i believe he wants to use a testastretta 999 998 bobbie... Its not about the engine performance with the airbox, its a cross member on the std frame that gets in the way of fitting a 998 air box. it can always be done, its just a bit more harder unecessary work...
that said, if i was going to do another conversion, i wouldnt bother with a testa, id use a 1098 or even 1198......:wink:
