Hey all
is it better to keep the original 998cc motor in my clubby or would it be better to put a fully worked 1123cc?

it all comes down to what either engine is built like, the larger one could out last the 998 if built properly and vice verca, talk to the willson twins in derwent park rd. they'll tell you all u need to know.
