I like where you are going with this!
Do you have any pictures of said motor and transmissions?
I would assume that being a newer, and domestic ( not chinese ) motor we could use the computer port to find any wiring issues and delete or overcome them.
Shoot, 100+ hp would double the cherry 1100...so the transmission gearing should be much less of an issue.
