03 mxz 800 motor in 00 summit 700?

[unclepatty]

im thinking about putting a 800 motor out of 03 mxz in a 00 summit 700. does anyone know if this will work or am i gonna run into a lot of problems. thanks for your help

lots of ?'s

Does the 800 motor have all the wiring and mpem with it? do you get the motor plate? anything can be done with a little patience and time... once put a 617 rotax in a 90 phazer..that was a chore but ran awsome. I know you would be ier with the 800

i have the whole parts sled was just wondering if it would be better to rebuild the 700 or swap the 800

 

[Snow Duck]

oh ya the 800 you'll like it

Well if you have a whole parts sled with all the wiring and misc parts then i tink you would be happier with the 800 if you didnt have to do a complete rebuild...

If it were me I would go for the 800. Better power and tork

Shouldn't be to tough, get all the wiring, mpem,clutch setup, gearing, motor,carbs, exhaust off an 800 sled and you should be good to go.
Lots of parts availability out there, here, ebay, Doo-Talk, salvage yards.
If possible, buy a wrecked/roller sled and swap the parts, paying attention to crank bearings and top end on the donor sled.
Good Luck-Keep all us ancient ZX owners posted.
