this time the motor is due to my cousain he crashed and cracked the crankcase breathe (the cramber that sticks out from intake system) so the motor sucked in dirt and locked up

That sounds like a bunch of bullsh*t. Break your cousin's arms and tell him to pay up.

Stick a 450 engine in there as long as you need to buy a new engine anyway.

thats really stupid. it pisses me off when you let people you think know how to do things and break stuff and not bother to pay you. i just make sure they are never on any of my rides again. trick me once shame on you. trick me twice shame on me:cool:

Yea, I know how that goes. A friend of mine toasted my Banshee engine a couple years ago. Cost me $1000 to rebuild it (Top end, crank, clutch). Luckily the guy who did it didn't charge a penny for labor, otherwise it would've been through the roof! My friend tells me he's never going to pay me, I told him I'm going to break both his legs. He laughs, I'm serious:) .
