you will have to change the electronics along with the motor. that will make all your wires match up again

Only problem is that the person who owned it first has all the wiring messed up,because i gues the voltage regalator went on the bike,and he put a totaly different one and messed all the wiring up,basiclly ruin the bike i think

Well you may be able to use the 350 stator. on the 400. or find some scrambler ignition. because scramblers never had the bigger lighting coil, digital ignition with crank trigger.
Or use the cdi and everything from the 400.
the question is where do the extra two wires go. Is the voltage regulator different. check the online parts fiche and go from there. Do you have a wiring schematic? hmm all check my book and see what I think
