mcdizzys.com has a good write up on it. other people have done it but the parts are really hard to get.
thanks and i was going to go to a junkyard to try and find the parts or find a website that has them
You need alot of things off the dt200 to make it work.For one you need the cylinder cause the blaster does not have the water jackets.It is not worth your time trying to find parts.A whole motor would be better.There is no reason for a liquid colled blaster,running and jetted correctly they will run cool.I have never seen one overheat except for bad seals,air leaks etc etc Forget the liquid cooled and go buy some bigger better parts.lol
BTW the liquid cooled heads you seee occasionaly on ebay are junk also.Doesn't do much better than stock.IMO
i was thinking of putting a yz490 in my quad but i cant find an engine around where i live and i read that its such a pain in the ass and it vibrates a hell of alot.. im prob better off getting a banshee and throwing a cbr engine in it lol
so that i can have a sick ass quad that will fly past everyone else and it aint gunna be f****d up if you do it right.
If you want to do a DT swap i recommend gettin a complete DT200 bike for a donor. you wil need most of the wiring harness anyways.

Custom Banshee with CBR 600 F4 engine‏ - YouTube check this vid out and tell me if you still think a cbr engine in a 'shee would f**k it up?
i think its stupid because you can make a banshee with more hp than that for almost cheaper if not cheaper, and it would the mounts would be just as strong as there were before.
its not all that hard to make a banshee with 150+ hp for less than $3000
so yes i think that is f'ed up.
keep the right engines in the right frames, there built that way for a reason.

and do you not see how the frame goes out around the engine? That would put tremendous amounts of stress on the whole frame.
Id like to see him do some jumps or go over some rough terrain.
i did see that the frame was extended out and the frame could have been reinforced and as for the engine swap some people prefer bike engines but like the feel of their quads it all depends on the rider
