The only people I can recall that make a round port side exhaust engine is a Trinityy/Picco. They still have a few of them around. Most round port exhaust engines are rear exhaust. I don't thing the round port side exhaust caught on so well, so there are fewer of them

HERE

The carb may look backwards, but it isn't tightened. Just take the carb out and rotate 180 degreesand you should be set

IT WILL WORK!!!!

just that you need to use your current flywheel because the pull start's mount is a little taller than a non pull start so if you use a smaller flywheel you may not be able to start the engine with a starter box

For the most part, the ps mounts simply allow the motor to sit higher on the chasis to clear the pull start. The flywheel is also a bit larger (in case you have to bump start it, I believe). In theory that shouldn't be a problem. I'll look into it some more

hmmm, I see my typing is a bit slow...

And don't worry about the offroad designation. Most cars using this engine have a slide carb setup. The engine will be fine in your NRS4

As far as your round port, side exhaust engine, THIS may be your only option
