Has anyone ever seen anyone put a Raptor 660 motor in a 400ex frame?? I know it sounds a little wierd but I wonder how it would go . Lots of modifications would be needed but i bet it would fly. If you see or have any pics of this sort let me know .

Waist of money and time. If anything I would swap in a crf450

i'm not sure but I think the top frame rails would be to low to fit the 660.;)

ditto!
perfectly true nausty, the 400 frame rails would need to be cut up, which is a bad bad thing!

Here's a thought, keep the Raptor engine...IN the Raptor frame. That's pointless to swap them.

personally i'd swap in a 400ex motor in a 400ex frame:eek: thats what I did! Really though if you wanna do a swap go with the crf or yzf, they got more power, they sit lower and are smaller and LIGHTER.
