Good luck with all the fabbing you are going to have to do for everything! I question if the 450 motor will even fit in a blaster frame

By the time you are done doing the fab. work you could have paid for a used 450. I have put myself in that place to may times. Like putting a 580 zr motor i a raised golf cart it was a nnightmare. probably have 3000 in fab work.

In all seriousness, you would need to take the blaster frame and replace it with something else.
I love a Blasters, my son's if lots of fun, but it is what it is.
The suspension, brakes, steering and everything else would need to be changed to make it work right with the bigger heavier motor.
And if you really have to ask this question, I don't suspect you have the skills to do thousands in fab work yourself.

/\/\/\/\ I am with him. The 450 motor will be hard to find, and the money for it, in my opinion, isnt worth it. Plus the Fab bill. You could buy something faster and have money to spare.
