Title: I need a engine
Post by: Nick on October 01, 2008, 07:19:43 AM

            I'll be picking up a shee from a friend pretty soon, but it has a blown engine that's not in the frame. I'm looking for maybe getting a new engine for it or rebuild this one.
I'm not sure what year it is, but the price is right no matter what. It's white, he said the plastics are great, new seat, 2 sets rims and tires, i think he said pro circut dual pipes, and he also mentioned "J" arms, so i might be needing A arms as well.
     I'm just waiting for him to get it from his parents house and that may be a couple weeks. So i'm just looking into future work..I was going to part it out, but i'm just going to keep it i think. oooorr maybe part it and put it into the raptor! ohhhhh that's a good idea...oh well,  i see there arn't many topics so this should keep some of ya's busy!

If it has the cases and cylinders just rebuild the motor. If it needs a crank they are cheap, a bore on the clylinders and new pistons are cheap too... They are brainless to rebuild, if you have any q's along the way hit me up.

i have a stock set of jugs bored .60 over with weisco pistons and cross hatch boring in the for sale section if you need a top end rebuild.  pretty quick set up.

J-arms means she's an old girl, no newer than 89 or so.  There are kits for a-arms but you'll have to weld to the frame, it's not just a bolt on.

post up some pics when you get it.  im sure you will enjoy it.  J-arms are lighter and good for drag racing.  some people say they dont hold up to well in woods and rough riding but i have found that they hold there own in all types of riding.

What if the lights go out on your electronic dodad?
The gauges would sure be nice then.
