GZ 150?
never heard of one
Thought they only made 125's and 250's
If you stick up a few pictures of the parts you want to replace i'd say a few of the more experienced members might be able to give you an answer

Re: Suzuki GZ 150

cheers,

The province i live in has a max engine size restriction of 150cc.
although the police bikes are 250cc.

I have a BMW 750 i bought in Beijing, but it is forbidden in Zhongshan where i live and the police keep stopping me and sooner or later they will confiscate it.

I went to bike shop today and ordered the GZ150, i will take some pics when it arrives.

Probably not.
Other things are likely different too: cams, valves, crank throw, etc.
It would probably be easier to smuggle in a whole 250 and "debadge" it.
An ENTIRE 250 engine/transmission might fit.......but that would be a lot of money for not much gain.

Re: Suzuki GZ 150

Just my opinion here but I would be wanting to cooperate with the law rather than hiding something and getting caught later on and losing it. Ride the 150, you may find it to a perfect ride for local roads and traffic.

Especially in a place like China, where I've heard that you can get into a world of hurt if the local LEOs decide they don't like you.......laws or no laws.
