Then buy a $40 Cylmer manual is my sugestion. http://www.themanualstore.com/Polari...al-p/m3654.htm Did you buy the higher duration H.O cam? It will give you more mid to high top end power.
Only run "Full synthetic 0W-40" in that motor or you will be doing it again.
Is this what your old one looks like?

Carb is not necessary though, I person I know put a H.O motor in his Sportsman 400 and kept the 32mm carb. He said it worked out great without even a re jetting . Here is his PM
I would think the cam alone would make a good performance improvement even without the larger 40mm carb.
Not sure but I think Polaris only makes the H.O cam now. The Part number is 3085855
This guys sell it for $223.52 http://www.cyclepartswarehouse.com/f...2006&fveh=5685
Hi TLC,
Just wanted to thank you for the info you gave me on the engine swap on the '05 Sportsman 400. The 500 H.O plugged in there with little hassle and ran like a champ......didn't even have to change jetting on the 32mm which I found odd. Anyway, I really appreciate your help!

my old cam looks just like the pic. i have the cam and rocker arm replaced. wasnt too bad. runs much better, no more backfiring thru the carb. but now i have the problem of it not wanting to run full throttle. when i give it full throttle, it takes a bit for it to get to full throttle. when i put the airbox on, it wont rev up at all. seems to be running rich too. any thoughts. i have ordered a manual, but its not here yet.

Being that its a 96 I would check for worn buttons in the secondary clutch, that causes a problem like that.
