Default snowmobile engine in a quad? Ever seen one?

Has anyone ever seen a quad that someone modified to use a snowmobile engine in it? My buddies are trying to talk me into turning my 95' Scrambler 400 into a 800 2 stroke from a snowmobile engine. Curious for your thoughts??? The Scrambler needs an overhaul anyway....

Just the sound made me want to buy another one, but then I remembered the winters up here haven't been very good. Not worth it to me.
