Yes they are. And no they are not.
John Deere used two families of Kawasaki motor
The T1 and T7
T1 is an older design Was used in Spitfires and Trailfires
Kawasaki used a Spitfire motor in the 1980 F/A 340 Drifter
The T7 is a later design and used in Sportfire's, Liquifire's. Kawasaki Invader's, Intruder's and 440 Drifter's ( I'm not sure on the 340 Drifters)
While there are differences within each family. Many parts will swap within each family.
Hopefully this clears things up somewhat.
