Sweet rail man!! I think a sled engine can be put into a sport or scrambler chasis. You can use the stock transmission, put in the engine, and line up the clutches. The recoil might stick out a little on the right side, but not bad as long as you use a twin cylinder. And you will have to custom fabricate some pipes. If you like to tinker, it's prob. a good project to try!! I have seen it done, a 440 liquid in a scrambeler 2x4 chasis...wow. I know some guys wanted to put a 700 or 800 twin in, but I've not heard any outcomes from those experiments

i went to the polaris dealership to buy the kids a predator 90 and back in the shop are was an old john deere sled converted to a four wheeler it looked sharp.the owner took the skis off of the front and grafted a-arms to it and then he built a swing arm of some sort and put a fourwheeler axle and shocks on it.i never got to see it run but it sho was funky looking

i'm sick and tired too,i think a first great effort could be the old
big block domestic from the '98 xc 600&700 twin,those are non valved motors and at this time they're probably cheap to get,low mainteneances as well,also this engines was setting up with keihin 39 mm carbs.
the 600 big block produce around 108 hp with single pipes,if i had the chance that could be my fastest scrammy ever...
