    i havent seen one on here but you could check on youtube or something. it is hard to use a snowmobile since it uses belts, and would need a really big one to get to the axle. it would also have to be air cooled too but i suppose it could be done. steve

    Theres a guy with a rotax snowmobile engine in a banshee, he ran 123mph in the 1/8th mile, he has the fastest atv 1/8th mile time at my local drag strip.

    His time was 5.83 seconds....

    There is a you tube video of him somewhere? Ive seen it.

    They do run on belt's, but they are connected to a jack shaft that run's the sproket and chain.

    Before I bought my 400ex I almost bought a lt250r with a old snowmobile engine in it....lol.

    I cant seem to find his vid....

    If you go to youtube and look up rotax banshee alot of stuff come's up.

    At the drag strip's website at the bottom of the page there's a scrolling bar with the track record's on it...www.countylinedragwayinc.com

    Thats where I run my 400ex.
