Re: New guy with a snowmobile engine question
Try and look around Youtube for carts with sled engines... There are many more options than a sled engine also

Re: New guy with a snowmobile engine question
Yea, thats my biggest concern is the noise. but i didnt have the money to spend on a high powered 4 stroke. i got the engine in a somewhat decent running sled for 150 bucks.

Re: New guy with a snowmobile engine question
Noise would be an issue for me. I guess I'm going to try a 4 stroke build for now. I might start a build thread. From what I understand if I could mod my stock engine to get a few more hp and safety run at a higher rpm then I'll have no problem hitting 30. In theory lol

Re: New guy with a snowmobile engine question
Do some looking around the Big Block section on the forum here and see what ideas you can come up with...

Re: New guy with a snowmobile engine question
295 Robin. I've been looking on the big block section and they talk about a high rev kit.

Re: New guy with a snowmobile engine question
A rev kit just basically stiffens up the valve springs so they don't float so soon.

Re: New guy with a snowmobile engine question
For a few bucks more, you can get the whole sled, and know it's complete.
Also, e-start, CDI ignition. That Cat was likely a free-air engine, no fan. Yamaha has made the 540 since 79 or so, and they are mild, long-lived http://tippecanoe.craigslist.org/sno/4358846681.html |
