If it were me, I'd drop the '04 motor in a KX chassis instead...easier time fitting it, less issues with exhaust routing especially. But it has been doen with an E-series as well. 99-up KX125s make the best transplants, cheap and easy to find parts for them. Check out the Hybrid section, you will likely find the answers to all the questions you haven't thought of yet

The 03 and up KX125 is the best option for the E-series motor.
Besides the fact that it is the newest KX design, it uses a read head stay as does the E.
The older 99-02 KX uses a front head stay.
The H-motors use both front and rear and you can use modify the head either way.
