Was the 97 classic fuel injected?   I was thinking they were carb'd, but not sure.    You may be able to find more info on this subject on the Vulcan forum --  I have never heard of anyone personally doing a Classic-Drifter motor transplant.    Sorry, hopefully someone else out there will have more info.

Will a 1997 Vulcan 1500C fit? It looks a little different than my 2001 1500.

Mechanic fit is one thing.  Electrics in another thing you may have to consider, e.g. ECU will be different between a DFI Classic and the Drifter - maybe not enough to make a difference though. - also Nomads (and maybe Classics ??) have dual alternators.

Any year drifter motor should fit.  I've also gathered from reading that the other Vulcan 1500s and maybe even the 1600s will fit in there.

Heck, even a small block 350 will fit, with custom motor mounts, LOL. ::)
