Besides the 4-valve head, how much different is the Rhino's 450 engine from the Wolverines and Grizzly's/Kodiaks?

Its a 4 valves, but now I have never seen a Rhino motor so I wonder if it could fit into a Wolvy anyway...

Dont know if I will do it kwackermann, I am thinking of replacing the whole motor or doing some work on the head to have 4 valves on there. Because I dont think the oversize 488 will be enough for me and I am not so hot of doing this kind of work (oversize) because of reliability issues. I would rather fit a Rhino 700 FI on the wolvy if only it would fit [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]
