For what engine? As for the Honda/Grubee 4 stroke....this happens to have started life as a Huffy Santa Fe, but mine is a men's frame, of course.

I use a different fork and replaced the wheels with Husky 11 ga spoke wheels.

Well, that frame looks an awful lot like a girl's bike to me, so the frame mount would seem to be out.

Not only is it tougher to mount an engine in a step through frame, but you have to find a place to mount the fuel tank since there is no top tube. It's not a good choice for your first build.
