Great news from both Roland and Adam - thanks guys. Since the 106 engine already has new gaskets top and bottom and fresh oil, I'll not mess with that. I'm in process of removing the head and oil pan from the 100 engine just to see what I can see. It moves freely, which is good. I had to mill off about 1/8" of iron on the exhaust port where the exhaust must have broken years ago - the milling also worked well and there is still plenty of iron and threads to hold a new iron pipe.
Do either of you see any issues with switching carbs on these engines? The 100 has a Carter N26 and the 106 has a Chinese knockoff of an IH carb.
