Default Will this work

I have a Trek ZX7000 a very nice mountain bike.

I was thinking about getting this:
gasbike(dot)(net)/grubee-skyhawk-gt2b-48cc-black-finish-bicycle-engine-kit.html

but i don't know if the motor will have any clearance on this bike.

heres the same link for the bike.
Picasa Web Albums - jae

looks like a tight fit for the sparkplug and carb+aircleaner. even if you dont have the water bottle holder on there.

the picture is of my first bike that i had to cut the frame to get the engine to fit and you dont want to have to do that,i now have a larger frame bike and my engine fits a lot better.

The Trek 800 on my website has a 18" seatpost tube & a fat down tube...
The engine fit just fine; I had to bend the exaust pipe around the downtube tho...
You can use my pics for a reference.
