[Dirty200]

Good afternoon boys. Bought an 84 250r barnfind for 100 bucks. Frame is shot motor needs rebuilt. My question is will an 84 motor fit in an 85 frame? 205330 please help!!!

No. The 84 is an air cooled engine, the 85 is liquid cooled. The 2 years are very different.

Plus the 81-84 engines have right side drive where the 85-later engines are left side....
