Engine numbers follow frame numbers - viewtopic.php?f=20&t=5282&p=32257#p32257

There are differences between engines most of which are small. Most important is ignition timing.

What BoR says isn't true I do make mistakes :oops: .

The CRM FAQs section is well worth reading. viewforum.php?f=20

Jeram is in the process of making a CR/CRM engine which will probably produce quite a bit more power than the original CRM. A lot depends on how well executed the modifications are made and how reliable the end product is.
