"BLAHH"300!!

hey jeff or marty, or anyone that know's really.
i found a good deal on a cr250 dirtbike. i havn't seen the bike, and i don't know the year. i was wondering if i could wedge that motor into my 300ex frame. then i'd sale the rest of it for other parts. i'm not too familiar with dirtbikes, so i have a few questions.
is this motor 2 stroke?
if so, what keeps this cr250r motor from being a trx 250r motor.
(it is cr250r right?)
is it liquid cooled?
could i get the motor, radiator, and pipe routed to work in the chassis. (withwhat pipe, trx, or cr?
i know you'll say get a 250 or 400 chassis, but i don't have one, and i'd re-enforce the 300's frame.
what are the pro's and cons of doing this.
what should i expect from the engine's output.
would it be weak in the atv chassis.
where would it put me in a drag aginst 300's and 400/250r's?
the bike's just sittin' there. me and a few guys talked about it last night at the bar, and it sounded like a good idea, (but doesn't everything discussed at a bar "sound" like a good idea?
from what i hear, it's in good shape, cranks easy, runs nice, and he only wants a few hundred for the whole bike.
..(tryin to build his lt250r back up.)
thnx,
later TBONE
