a few engine questions

Post by choctaw » Wed Dec 02, 2015 6:58 pm

I recently bought a 1966 Honda dream.I purchased 2 books and a parts cd. First question is my engine a type 1 or 2? Ca77E 1015978 (engine) I believe it to be a type2 360. crank. is this correct? and what does the "E" stand for? other question is vin# on frame is CA78 1015708 is this correct for a 1966 year model?thanks for your input.Mike

Your Dream is a Type 2 with a 360 degree crankshaft.
E stands for engine.
Your CA78 vin. is most likely 1966 or later.
1967 CA78
1965 CM90
