Yes they fit the same way but you can't take a 300 and put it on a 430

I think its the other way around. The GS300 engine is taller so it may or may not clear depending on the bar and if you have the engine cover as well.

yes i believe the 300 engine with engine cover is the tallest. then it's the 430 with the engine cover

the 400 with engine cover is the lowest for sure

chuck b- you could probably snag a jdm aristo stb for cheap... something like maybe 50-80 bucks. I have one on my GS3 so it should fit yours fine.
