Because the 400ex sucks ass and the 350x roots ass.

I am going by what Ive heard on these boards. I have read tons of posts on how stock 350x's have smoked lightly modified 400ex's and none of the posts have been disputed.Plus, I could probably get a ex rolling chassis for around a grand and a strong X engine for about 5-600 and have a better quad than the ex for half the price.

why not just get a 350x and leave it at that?? if you do put he engine in a quad, put it in a 250x chassis. that will be easier. there are palces that sell kits to make the engine fit.

well is it possible that the 350x is faster beacuase it is also A HELL OF ALOT LIGHTER. then the 400ex...and the 400ex also has more reistance.. it makes sence to stick to a COMPLETE 350x if you wanna go fast

ah good, someone actually KNOWS why the 350 wastes the 400... haha, stick a 350x engine in a 300ex or a 250x.. but sticking it in a 400ex is retarded.
The below sentence is TRUE.

The 400ex and 350X motors have the same HP output so a swap would do no good. The 400EX has more aftermarket power upgrades so I would stick with that.

the reason that 350 smokes a 400ex is because it is much lighter

Thanks for all the posts. And no, im not retarded as of yet. Holler at me in a few more ounces. By the way, I just found out there is yet another option - crf 450. The ad in DirtWheels said 400$ for a complete engine so,scew the 350 and 400ex engines.
