Default ds650 engine into predator?

Would it be possible to put a ds650 engine into a predator? Those motors have a TON of midrange, and produce a bit more power than the ktm525 motor (i think its 46 on the 650 and 42or43 on the ktm) But would the ds650 motor be much heavier than the 500fuji or whatever you call the stock predator motor? (i doubt it is much heavier as it is an SOHC just like the 525 versus DOHC in the 500)

i just thought it would be cool if someone did a conversion like that.
