yes, it is the same engine except for one fact, the 1st gen's came with a "6 bolt " and in the 2nd gens came with a "7 bolt" the 7 bolts had a major problem with "crankwalk" which is exactly what it sounds like, the crank literaly walks out of the casing... there are several theories to why the engine does this but nothing confirmed... you will need to get a 6-7bolt swap kit which you can get at quite a few websites. www.slowboyracing.com, www.cimotorsports.net, www.buscharracing.com good luck w/ the build
