Well I ordered the 488 kit for my Wolverine 450
I broke down and ordered the 488 kit and camshaft from FST last night.
I think the bill was about $698. Today I will go to Yamaha and buy the gaskets I will need and set up an appointment to have the machine work done. Ill let everyone know what I end up spending on it and how the Performance gain is.
FST told me that he wouldnt spend the extra 350 and wait about 6 weeks of down time to get the crank done for the extra 12cc's it would give me.

Sweet, Are you going to install a larger carberator or change out the air box?</end quote></div>
No I dont think Ill change carbs yet and noone offers a different airbox at this time.
I went to Yamaha yesterday and bought race coolant and more oil to change it when I do the BBK. I also bought the only 2 gaskets that I might need if I split the cases so an additional 56.00 in parts brings the total to $754 spent so far.
They told me that if We can machine the cases without splitting them then I can pull the head and cylinder off of the wolvy without even removing the engine from the frame.

well you could probably replace the head with a 4 valve head, if you can find a piston made for a 4 valve head with the same specs. You could put the raptor motor in there but then you would not have 4x4 because the motor and trans are in one piece.
