Default does this sound stupid to you?

does it sound stupid to put a banshee engine in an 03 blaster...Can it be done? has anyone done it or know anyone that has?would i have to change any suspension, swingarm, a arms or anything else? well if you all are wondering y i want to do this is because i like how the blaster has a smaller width and length and i have some body mods i dont wanna just give up but if you think its just a better idea to just buy a banshee then say so thanks for your help

I dont think it sounds stupid, i just think it sounds hard and sounds like a lot of work to me. If you get it done, i want to see pics!!! Good luck

I've seen pictures of it done.I'm sure it would be lighter but alot of work.
Banshee pipes are designed to bolt up to a banshee frame and not a blaster.
You would definitely need a longer swingarm.The mounts would probably need to be changed also.Wiring would also probably need to be changed.Sounds like too much headache for me.

I'd just buy a banshee.

First thing you are going to find after you did that conversion is that the Blaster frame needs to be lengthened and widened to make the thing rideable. Now a much better project would be to put a Banshee motor into a YFZ frame[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
