Okay so heres the thing, my blaster blew up top and bottom and idk if i really want to get the thing rebuilt. I gota 1985 honda xr 350 that has a really strong engine in it and i was wondering if its possible to do the swap into my blaster frame.

anythings possible with some pipe and a welder I:I

Im not really partial to any particular brand theyre all jap bikes so wtf does it matter imo?

But if it were me and the new engine was light years ahead of the blaster and could make this an all around better quad id say go for it.


Id steer clear of a stick welder for this type of welding and go with a mig rig and not that craptastical fluxcore garbage.

Idk about the rest of these guys but im into motor swaps especially when the engines making more power than what was previously in there and even better if it has more potential in the near future since id mod it asap.

I say let your imagination run wild and if you got the skills to pull it off and make it look and work like the factory intended it to be there then hell yea.

But if youre planning some half assed honkey engineered pile of ass save your time and money and just do a top end its cheaper than a motor swap anyways.
 
That motor would last you untill you outgrow your Blaster or get tired of it and be making a whole 23hp doin it.

Wellllllllll if that motor only makes 23hp id save the time and effort and a little cash and get your blaster engine up and going with the usual bolt ons,a 240BBK ported and so on.


The time and effort it will take to install that 350 correctly will not be worth 5hp imo.
