As far as being able to bolt in, what all can a Zuma horizontal minarelli swap into? Theoretically can the Zuma motor bolt into a Vino frame? Can the motor swap into an Adly RT50? Genuine Roughhouse? Anything else less obvious? I've seen mentions of swapping into Kymco's with some modifications, but could never come up with an example or any other details.
Is a horizontal minarelli a horizontal minarelli no matter what when it comes to bolting it into another bike?

All bikes with a minarelli horizontal motor (long-case, short-case) can be swapped with any other minarelli horizontal engine. I don't know what the angle of the rear shock will be when you for example would swap a long-case motor in a short-case motor bike. The angle might change.
Just look at the location where the engine mounts are. Minarelli has them on top of the motor. Honda and Piaggio has them down low. A low mount motor obviously doesn't easily swap into a high mount motor frame.
Just go and compare pics of engine cases.

Minarelli horizontal will swap in any Minarelli horizontal frame and the chinese "Minarelli replicas". On some bikes, you will need to swap the brass colored engine mount (dunno what it's called in english. Looks like a pipe that is between frame and engine with a long bolt through it). Some Minarelli's are short case, which will have shorter wheelbase and only smaller wheels will fit. Best to stay away from them except it's exactly what you are looking for.

Best to stay away from them Why? You quoted a sentence that came exactly after the one that explained why.. What else do you want me to write?
