Hello guys, I am an old member to this site but i havent been on here in about 4 years, not because i got out of 3 wheeling(i ride 3-4 times a week) i just lived without a computer for a while. Anyway, I have two 85 Sx's, one i ride, the other i am building with a 300 fourtrax engine. I am currently fabricating a new 2inch extended swingarm out of stock swinger pieces, and i am modifying the frame to accomodate a 250r shock and linkage. My buddy is a machinist he is making the extended driveshaft. I am wanting to build the 300 engine where i can get more power, but run the stock carb and a modified stock 400ex silencer. What are ways to build power out of these engines. I read someone was running a 4 valve head, maybe off of a 300ex? Is it possible to run 86'-87' trx 350 engine parts in the 300 cases? just want to explore my power options, once the frame is done im gonna sink money into the engine.

the original 250 motor spins backwards so there may be problems with motor or motor part swaps

You may have an easier time swapping in a TRX250 rear end in; not much fabrication required. It is 3 inches longer than the SX.

Look at the link in my signature to see how I did it on my SX.
