You should specify what you mean by straight up a mountain.

depending on how steep the mountain is will determine your answer, unless of course you going up a cliff, then of course it will climb right up it.

all the way up to the snorkel (if you setup is stock that is) which would be like the bottom of the gas tank, actually it will go as deep as you want it, it just might not run.

as for snow, there is no snow in florida so i dont know.

Just get the bike and ride it. Find out where you want the power and what not.

When i had my warrior I built it to climb the mountians in Colorado. Sure it toped out at 45mph, but it had more torque than, well a lot of machines. I had a 45t rear sprocket on it (had to drop the rear skid) and a 12t front sprocket. It never lost power or traction climbing the verticals here in KS. It would just flip on over because of the torque.

The warrior is not the best for snow with stock tires. You have to grab something with good side lugs. I was very impressed with how well it did in mud with a dropped rear skid as well.

My personal cases on the warrior:
Water...
*Had a creek crossing where i had a 2 foot wave in front of me. If I had stopped, just guessing the water would have been about 3 feet deep

Mud...
*WOW, had it up to insides of the fenders before. But beware, just make sure you pull the front end up if it gets too deep. Keep crud out of that airbox.

Snow...
*Mine would cruise through about 1 foot of powder snow w/ ease, and just a little sluggish in the wet stuff.
*Drifts are fun. I had busted through drifts any where from 3-10 feet. Speed is key, and if you are lucky you could jump the drift [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

As for the carb. I would suggest not doing it, now. If you go hard core with the engine then yes, you will need one.

If you are asking where I got my low end gears and tires, check out
Rocky Mountain ATV

They seem to have good prices and customer service is great.

FYI, I also had a WB pipe and Bandit tires. Have fun building up a quad that fits your needs!
