Different engines?

teamexileracing · Dec 15, 2006

K well i have a yamaha timberwolf and a warrior and when i was taking apart both the wheelers for the winter i noticed that the timber had the same motor mount and i put the engine in it fit perfectly.

Anyways does anybody no if any other engines that fit in a warrior frame with no work or very little. I herd of a yfz450 fitting rumor going round is that true?

Thanks

I know this but i said "if any other engines that fit in a warrior frame with no work or very little". Dont meen to be mean or anything but i just wanted to point that out to you. Thanks for the comment though. And i think a small block would be kinda weak Ide get something bigger like a viper engine or somthing. Prob Kill myself but i could say i had the fasted warrior ever(before i die).

There's not much that fits without getting involved in some pretty heavy fabrication, because the newer, bigger engines are too tall to fit without modifying the top frame rails.

I think there is some kind of engine from an early 90's yamaha dirt bike (think it's a 400 or 450) that's supposed to mostly bolt right in, but I'm not a dirtbike guy so all the names and numbers just sorta float by me and I never paid much attention to it. I saw that over on Bluetraxx where they were talking about it.

tt500 i think or maybe the xt. It would most likely bolt up with little mods, however i cant see you gaining much power over a modified 350... there are more mods availible for it.

Thanks for the info ill look in to that dirtbike engine and i think you right bout not getting much more power because of the upgrades but i dont no what upgrades to get for my warrior engine. I dont have that much money and everything everyone told me is going to cost about a 1000 and i dont have that kinda money. What is some cheaper stuff for about 600 what could i get?
