Here's one that BIG KID did:http://www.buggymasters.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1083

I take it reverse isn't a needed item with an engine mod?

Ahh nicee....any engines that fit nicely or do all need modification
and no reverse isnt needed

I've been using the Honda TRX200SX engine (with reverse!), they fit nicely. May not be as powerful as you're dreaming about but get's them around alot faster with more torque than the GY6. Whatever powerplant you decide on will require modification to the swingarm and will need brackets and mod's other places. Do you have tools & skills?
We can help as there are many wise and skilled members here. Good luck

This should give you some idea of what's involved.
