first of all thats not a gy6 engine. (its a lifan) take the head off, measure the stroke, measure your bore, cylinder height, your case inlet, stud spacing, then order something larger. if the stroke is something weird, which its probably not since the would require, different rod length or different piston pin offset, or different cylinder height and chain length. the chinese numbering system isnt 100 reliable or predictable, especially since that doesnt look like the short case buggy engine but instead the ultra short no belt direct gear and chain output engine based on the lifan 125 pitbike engine. then you need something like this tboltusa.com/store/tb-141cc-big-bore-kit-br-14mm-pin-p-855.htmlbut those engines come in 125 140 150 and several other sizes, so measure its bore, and stroke when you take the head off and go from there. they also have different piston pin diameters, 10mm and 14mm etc. scooterparts4less has a bunch of parts but u need to know exactly what you need to order from them.

Howdy all, old scootdawg coming over to tap to collective brain. I have half a dozen or so of the chinese bastards, done engine swaps mods, etc...never been anything i could figure out....but
blew the engine out a tao tao 21b at 65mph, shredded it to little pieces, literally broke the mounts and case and everything else, rod sheared and jack hammered the case to bits, the brake line and all the wiring and lines and such is the only thing kept the rear wheel from separating from the scooter and probably killing me. Stuck in a new engine, changed the stator out for the one out the old engine, and literally fired it up on the first push of the starter button.
ran the engine, which purred like a kitten, 20 minutes later i changed the oil, fired it back up and warmed it up went for full throttle it burped, coughed and hiccuped, then the wiring harness from the stator, (stator and magnetic pickup harness) started smoking.....smoked a few wires, ideas before i tear it apart or is it a bad juju scooter, toss it on the curd and forget about it? after i take my engine of course, or not.
