Hey guys ive got a race ready 400ex. Im wanting more power for racing and by next year for sure ill want a 450. I love my quad and would love to keep it, but i want a little more power. Is it worth making it into a hybird or just buy a 450? Any 450 motors that will line up pretty good with little modding? If there is one. Any thoughts input?

the 426 conversions not real hard if you dont get pushed for time

What makes the YZF motors easier for the conversion than the CRF motors? How about the KTM? Suzuki? Or Kawie motors? Are they all about the same? The honda you would think would be the lower profile pick with the unicam design. Input fellas?
