I researched this option and it is very complex. At first thought obviously you need the cylinders and CDI box. But you also need the stator. The stator and CDI differed from year to year, so it's best to get both from the same RZ or it may not work. Also, the powervalve motors need to start up before you start the quad, which means you need a battery (mounting and wiring becomes quite a chore). So it can be done, but not easily.

I'm running the T-Rex FMF set-up and love them. I have bearly touched them and they scream, with a lot left there for improvement.

While looking into powervalves for my banshee I found that a RZ 350 Street bike that was in good enough condition to salvage the engine most people were asking 1500. So after buying the bike rebuild kit gasket kit and any thing else required to make the engine run. IT would almost be the same cost as going with a brand new mono cylinder setup.

This is pretty much what everyone that made the conversion told me, just buy some T-REX or Cheetahs and save yourself a headache.
