2thepointsetters Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 I am putting the motor from my 03 800 mxz into my 04 440 mxzx and the 440 motor back into the 800 chasis. Should be a fun project. I just started yesterday and I hope to have it done by next Tuesday. I wish I would have tried doing it this fall but I was to busy hunting.

311Hemi Posted November 30, 2007 Share Posted November 30, 2007 Oh the fun of pulling the Rev's apart. I put my front right ski into a rail road track last winter and it hung up on one of the bolts. Flipped me right over the handlebars. Replacing the nun sucks.....hopefully your engine swap isn't as bad. Mine is now all parted out.....trying to get rid of the remaining parts and might pick up another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meat-Run Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Hey wouldn't it have been a whole lot easier to just swap the hoods and be down Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meat-Run Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 Well if he has that much time he should come over and put a new stator in my AC. I just hope it fits without to many modifications to the frame our chasis. GOOD LUCK> MR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2thepointsetters Posted December 2, 2007 Author Share Posted December 2, 2007 Quote: Hey wouldn't it have been a whole lot easier to just swap the hoods and be down I am doing it because the 440 chasis is way better the than the 03 800 chasis. The farther I get into the more work it is becoming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
311Hemi Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 I would assume you have seen the post on Dootalk by Rev*baron?He has some info/instructions there on doing this swap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I have talked to him a couple times already. I read his instructions first and they made the job seem way easier than it is. Plus the 800 motor I am is using has a bad pto seal, carb boots, and pistons/rings. Another $900 spent and I am on my way again. (I sure hope I get the credit card bill before my wife sees it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
311Hemi Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 That sucks.....you got almost every engine issue there. I went with the Boyesen Rad Valves to replace the dump factory boots. I also installed the PTO seal retainer kit that one of the dootalk members sells. Luckily, the sled I bought had the pistons/rind replaced with Cudney parts.Good luck and post up when your done!!!I'm still looking for a replacement Rev....but might look at an 500SS just because of the bulletproof engine. Although I saw a 06 Fusion 600 in my price range.....hmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2thepointsetters Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 All done.... Took longer than I thought to get it all done. Both the 440 and 800 motor have fresh topends. This is the 440 chasis with the 800 motor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I have over 600 miles on the 800 and my wife has about 400 on the 440) It took alot of fine tuning on the cluthes and gearing but I am happy now. The sled in the pic is a 121 right now, but this summer I might change it. The sleds are done just in time because the snow is really good up here. The warm temps ruined the powder but the trails are the best they have been in years.You will love the Gade my dad has 07 800 and that sled is awesome.
