It's only the older hondas that rotate the other direction - the new ones all rotate the right way - makes no difference, the counter-rotating gigadrive-differential location means this swap is absolutely impossible.

The older engines actually did rotate counter-clockwise, but all the new i-vtech generation and the RWD Hondas all rotate the right way - same goes for the bike engines obviously
