Wow, pretty cool Can't wait to see some pics

Nice! I agree, let's see some close-ups of that bad boy.

Ill take one site unseen do you deliver?

nice cant wait to see how it came to be.

Nice, looks to have the right amount of power.

Greg

now THAT'S the engine for that buggy!

Nice, yes lets see some build pictures.

Very VERY nicely done... How much ???

Nice,very nice!!

I know those large engined quads in my area are at least $3k and up and they do not show up often.

that thing does scoot wright along pretty good

It would be tougher to get that motor than the swap itself . So what's the story behind the motor? I found dyno sheets on that motor, it starts as a beast and can be built into a monster.

that thing looks like it hauls pretty good. nice job. does it have reverse?

Thanks everyone. Its definitely the right amount of power for the chassis and the motor has plenty of upgrade potential. Its a five speed and does have reverse. The swap itself was actually really easy. I bought the complete quad and sold the rolling chassis to make up some of the expense. There was a lot of wires to go along with the fuel injection but I was able to use most of the stock quad wiring harness. As soon as work slows down I'll organize and post pictures.

Any update on this? sure would like to see some pictures.

(pm sent)

I`d really like to see some build pics of this too.

I was having a hard time uploading pics on this site so here is the link to photobucket.

The buggy still isnt finished to the standards i would like but it is a lot of fun to drive. Ive probably put 300 miles on it since the swap and have only had a few minor problems. In the next month or two i plan on cutting off the roll cage and rebuilding it out of dom tubing, rewiring the buggy, finding a new fuel tank and building a new exhaust. I'll post pics as i accomplish more.

Thanks for posting some pics b-rock. I was checking out a 700xx engine on ebay and that engine is perfect for using the stock drivetrain.

Curious if you're using a hand clutch or foot?

Wow, lots of wires Good luck and keep us posted on your progress - thanks again for the pics.

The engine really is perfect for using the stock drivetrain. That was the main reason I chose it. Right now I'm using a hand clutch but eventually I might switch to a hydraulic foot clutch. I made the new shifter from 7/8 tubing so I could use the quad clutch perch and had a local shop make longer clutch and throttle cables. The stock exhaust from the quad was used but it does come within an inch or two of the passenger seat. I put heat shield on the back of the seat and Kevlar wrap on the head pipe. I haven't had any problems yet. The stock air box fit behind the back frame rail so I will continue to use that until I get a fel controller to play with the air fuel ratio.

The wiring is definitely a mess and I'm trying to clean that up right now. Hopefully next time I post a picture it will be a little more organized. Its a little overwhelming how many sensors the engine has for the fuel injection but the power is worth it.

That thing sure takes up a lot less room than the 500 or 400 Polaris with the seperate engine trans set up. Bet that thing really gets it. What kind of Hp is it rated at?
